Claw & Warder

Contains episodes one, two, and three of Claw & Warder. Seduction, Episode 1 Leery Oriscoe is just a conflicted New York cop who got hit by the Hassidic bus-only the bus was driven by a werewolf. There's bound to be a little crazy under his black hat. His life just got 10 times more complicated. His new half-vampire and half-succubus partner is smart, sexy as hell, and keeping a big secret from everyone. Oh, and their lieutenant? She's the ghost of a Van Helsing. Their case? Tracking down the entity responsible for leaving the drained body of a young man in Riverside Park. With a succubus for a partner, another as a witness, and yet another as the prime suspect, will Leery end up the victim of the next seduction? Arms Dealers, Episode 2 She's an expert spellslinger. He's a grizzled detective with a wolfish side. Dru and Leery are a match for anything. Faced with a pair of armless bodies and an unlikely pair of criminal masterminds-a Norwegian wood troll and an Unseelie-Leery knows the right people to help sort it all out. There's only one hitch: the Zombie mafia. Full of danger and mystery, the case keeps everyone involved on edge. Leery even takes a break from drinking coffee. With the Zombie mafia's constant need for spare parts, is it any wonder the Locus of New York is full of arms dealers? Mitzvah, Episode 3 Everyone has a past, even Hassidic werewolves. Leery's past has a taste for blood and wants revenge. There's a killer running wild in the East Village, and according to the witness, it's Leery Oriscoe in wolf form. When Van Helsing puts him on a desk, Leery storms off, leaving Dru to prove his innocence. But to do it, she will need help from her mother, and that means a trip to Hell. It looks like Dru picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue. After another body drops, Leery is in the clear, but the Rabbi that turned him becomes the prime suspect. To make things worse, the Zombie mafia's pet necromancer assassin is in town, and she's gunning for Leery.

Contains episodes four, five, and six of Claw & Warder. Silkie Stalkings, Episode Four After three bodies surface in the Hudson River over a period of three weeks, Oriscoe and Nogan catch the case. Nothing seems to connect the three men until the detectives discover they all used Sinder, the online dating app. Their digital footprints reveal a common thread - a penchant for supernatural women. The catch is, Lucifer owns Sinder. It runs on a proprietary mix of devilry and technology, and the Dark Lord wants to keep his secrets, even if it is his favorite niece asking. But there's a seal-bridezilla swiping her suitors right...into the Hudson. When Dru and the devil lock horns, will it fall to Leery to run down her Silkie Stalkings? They Ate Gatsby, Episode Five The Dead Set defines high society in the Locus of New York. Lavish soirees, formal dinner parties, decadent blood tastings, debutante balls, black-tie charity galas...the vampires do it all. When socialite J. Gatsby goes missing, only one detective has the background, the breeding, and the poise to go undercover to root out the truth. Of course, Leery brings Dru along for good measure. And it's good he did, because when the blood lords grow suspicious of a werewolf's scent on the wind, Dru must use all of her charm to distract those suckers. Can the two detectives avoid discovery long enough to learn why They Ate Gatsby? Gnome Schooled, Episode Six In the NYPD's Supernatural Inquisitors Squad, a Warder has no higher calling than to protect her Claw. She uses magic, guile, physical weapon-anything required-and her razor-sharp focus never blurs. Drusilla Nogan exemplifies this grand tradition...except when there's a cute gnome to talk to. With a notorious gnome gang on the loose, committing crimes all over Manhattan, Leery plays bad cop. The gnomes respond with raw, unfettered violence. Will Dru notice before Leery gets Gnome Schooled?
