Blurb:
The majority of Prosaic City's residents don't know that their town exists on top of another place -- Necropolis, City of the Undead. For the most part, the two planes of existence manage to remain separate. And when they don't, Necropolis Enforcement has beings in place to ensure the general human population remains blithely clueless.

Victoria Wolfe is more than just a policewoman. She's an undercover werewolf assigned by Necropolis Enforcement to work Prosaic City Police's Night Beat. Victoria's comfortable working the shift where all the weird comes out to play, especially since her partner is also her perfect man. Or would be, if Victoria could ever work up the nerve to tell him she isn?t like other girls.

It's hard enough being a werewolf in disguise, but when a creature from the Depths of Hell shows up in an alley preferred by junkies, bums, and hookers, it's going to take more than just Victoria's special gun and werewolf skills to subdue the ancient Sumerian demon. Especially when the demon is merely the start of what appears to be a major takeover attempt by the Prince of Darkness.

Soon all of Necropolis Enforcement's Undead Brigade is involved in the fight to stop the Prince's Major Minions from taking over Prosaic City and the rest of the human plane. But it?s Victoria who has to face the Adversary and figure out what intricate plan Lucifer has up his wings before everyone she cares about is destroyed.

In other words, it's just another day on the Night Beat.



Excerpt:

Ken sighed. Figures. Jealous to get you back or just chat sports??
Whatever, Ken. Kind of busy here.
Doing nothing. Fine, fine, going off to distract and protect the human. I think I'm going with mind-control, though. We want all those human snacks sent back to police headquarters.
Good, good. Carry on. The slime monster was forming tentacles. Count, we're going from bad to worse.
Slime monsters are difficult, Agent Wolfe, but hardly worth the panic in your voice.
How about something that looks like a slime monster, but isn't. You know, something with tentacles and no face and that sort of fun thing ?
Ah. How big?
Pretty damned. Amanda and I said that together. Because it was growing.
I think we need to call in H.P., Maurice said in a small voice. Maurice didn't scare easily.
The Count sighed. The professor is resting.
This is his area and we're not equipped for this, I snapped. Slimy here has eaten four of Prosaic City's finest, eaten two of our snazzy squad cars and, most likely, several bums, hookers, and drug dealers. For all I know he has some pigeons in there, too.
Rousing the professor now. He'll be to you shortly.
What about Edgar? Amanda asked.
Not his forte, Maurice said dismissively. He's better with the human side of things. This was true.
The slime monster that was more than a mere slime monster continued to form. I continued to shift into full attack form. Nails an inch long and razor sharp? Check. Fangs ready to rip and tear? Double-check. Eyes and ears altered to see and hear better? You got it. Damned fur all over my body, doubling as camouflage and protection? Sure. Problem was, in this day and age, fur wasn?t camouflage any more. Fur was a sign you were odd at best, and a werewolf at worst.
I was both. I was also out of options. The monster finished forming. It was twelve feet tall if it was an inch, and almost as broad as the alley. I aimed for what was likely either its head or its main organ area and fired.

  7. I seem to have an odd affinity for characters named Kitty. For many of the same reasons I love Kitty Katt, I love Carrie Vaughn's Kitty Norville. Smart, savvy and seriously unconventional, they embrace womanhood at it's finest. When it comes to the boys, I love Kenyon's Dark Hunters and Were Hunters. I could embrace that darkness.

  8. Paranorms are fast becoming my favourite genre, muscling out sci-fi in my To Read ASAP pile.

    Not having read Night Beat, I'd have to say my favourite paranormal series is Darynda Jones' "First Grave" series, because of the sarcastic, dry banter, the characters which all have depth and foibles, and the action (both speed and physical/emotional/romantic). Thanks for hosting this giveaway! selwyns dot sanity curly-at-sign yahoo dot com

  9. I love all paranormals but my three book boyfriends are all demons of some sort so I guess I have to go with demon. Thank you so much for the giveaway.

  10. Hmm, paranormal...that's a harder pick. I think I'm going to have to go with Downside Ghosts by Stacia Kane. I do need to get to the latest book, but enjoy the grittiness of the city but the mystery and investigation of it as well.

    Thank you for the giveaway!

  11. I love paranormal! But, my favorites are kind of mood dependant. I'm like that. I love Vivian Arend's books. They are light, simple, fun and a bit snarky. I have Karen Marie Moning's Fever series on my keeper shelf. They are dark, smartly written and just complex enough to make me want more. No matter the author, I want strong female characters. I was a storyline that makes sense but surprises me a little. I want a strong male figure that doesn't overwhelm the story. No, I don't ask for too much! jepebATverizonDOTnet
