Publisher Description
When you're near the top of the Underworld Detection Agency, the claws really come out. . .
Quick thinking and loyalty have taken human Sophie Lawson a long way in the UDA--along with a healthy dose of magic immunity. But when her old boss Pete Sampson asks for help after a mysterious two-year disappearance, she's determined to find out what high-placed demon has put two ruthless werewolf killers on his tail. Of course, sucking up to her icy vampire department head and negotiating a treacherous inter-office demon battle are the kind of workplace politics that could easily get a "breather" way worse than reprimanded. And sexy fallen angel Alex is doing whatever it takes to heat up Sophie's professional cool and raise feelings she's done her best to bury. Too bad their investigation is about to uncover the Agency's darkest secrets. . .and powerful entities happy to sign one inquisitive human's pink slip in blood. . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Life is never dull at San Francisco's Underworld Detection Agency. In the fast-paced, sexy, and uproariously funny fourth installation of Jayne's urban fantasy series (after Under Suspicion), hapless UDA investigator Sophie Lawson contends with the return of her werewolf ex-boss, Pete Sampson, presumed dead and now on the run from werewolf hunters. San Francisco is rocked by a mysterious series of unusually vicious murders during an equally brutal heat wave, and Sophie wonders whether Pete might be the culprit. Meanwhile, the tension between Sophie and sexy Alex Grace, a cop and fallen angel, heats up after a rough patch. Part will-they/won't-they supernatural romance, part heart-pounding mystery, and part love letter to San Francisco, this page-turner is packed full of unforgettable characters and suspense. It will delight new readers and fans alike.
