The Vampire and the Case of the Baleful Banshee

I thought I was finally getting the hang of being a paranormal policewoman, but when one of the gemstones powering the barrier around the town is stolen, I’m as terrified as the average Joe. Of course, there’s nothing average about the Joes in this town. It’s chock full of mythical creatures, and some of them think the barrier is a waste of time.

Well, I’ve seen the cryptid monster beyond and I know we’re doomed if the magical palisade ever fails. Calling what would follow a massacre would be a gross understatement. The race is on. I need to find the gemstone before the weakened barrier fails forever and the fiend devours us all. No pressure then.

It’s a simple theft… how hard can it be to solve? Answer: Very hard. Especially when theft turns into murder.

There’s also the little outstanding matter of my date with the vampire leader, Connor, not to mention that my best friend seems to be falling apart at the seams. And if all of that isn’t enough to be cracking on with, I have a visitor due imminently. My mother.

I’d rather face the monster.

The Vampire and the Case of the Cursed Canine

Spells, Hexes, and Curses.

Curses are falling on this town like rain in London. Just when I think I've found a link between the hexed victims, someone else shows up jinxed, too. It feels like the devil is playing darts with my paranormal town, and if the dart lands on you, you get whammed with a curse.

Frankly, I haven't got a clue how to find the perpetrator. Realistically, it probably isn't Beelzebub. My sole lead is pointing me at the traveling black market that has just landed in Portlock. That's all fine and dandy — if I can find out where it is. Weirdly, no one is willing to talk to the cops about the highly illegal market. I'm persona non grata, which I'm kind of used to, being a slightly-less-than-undead vampire.

On top of everything, my overbearing British mother has come to visit me in Alaska. Stuck in my shoebox house together, we might actually have to deal with some of our issues. Ugh, what fresh circle of hell is this? Thank goodness I have Connor MacKenzie, vampire leader, and sexy lumberjack, to run to when the going gets tough.

I'm juggling things — badly — when I discover my dog is cursed, too. The question is, what would I do to save my hound? The answer: anything and everything. The world can burn for all I care as long as I can save my pup.

The Vampire and the Case of her Dastardly Death

I awoke dead. It was a real bummer.

Being covered in blood and having fangs was the icing on an already terrible day. Things go from bad to worse when I get a summons to attend the vampire king’s court, where I get my marching orders. I’m given one lousy week to get my affairs in order and then I’m to present myself to the conclave to commence my hundred years of indentured servitude, where I get to learn Vampire 101.

The thing is, I have an eidetic memory and I’m a fast learner. It’s not going to take me a hundred years to grasp this stuff. And I have plans – mediocre ones, but they’re mine. One hundred years of servitude isn’t going to fit the bill.

I need to make my escape now, before they sink their teeth into me (again). The only problem is they’ve sent the vampire that turned me to keep a sharp eye on me, and he keeps looking at me like I’m a fine glass of merlot. Escape isn’t going to be easy.

My name may be Bunny, but they’re going to learn there’s nothing fluffy about me…

The Vampire and the Case of the Wayward Werewolf

Someone paid the vampire king’s creepy son to turn me in to one of the bitey undead. I’m not hanging about to find out who or why. The vampires want me to stay with them for one hundred years of indentured servitude but I have this thing about following orders so I ran from the streets of London to the wilds of Alaska.

I have an eidetic memory and a can-do attitude. I can-do anything to get away from the vampire king. So, when the Sheriff of Portlock, a hidden paranormal town, invites me to be his assistant, I say sure thing. It beats servitude hands down.

At First things seem ideal in Portlock, I make a new friend and even get asked out on a date. But the truth is, there are secrets a plenty. The paranormal council are at each other’s throats, figuratively of course. But then someone rips out a werewolf’s throat, literally this time.

I need to work with the Sheriff to find the killer before he strikes again. We just need to winnow through werewolf pack issues, council politics, and more suspects than you can shake a stake at. Simple.

Portlock is a melting pot of witches, necromancers, vampires, and shifters, but things are starting to boil over. I hope I don’t get burnt.

The Vampire and the Case of the Secretive Siren

Ok, so not much sex is going on. The closest I’ve gotten  to some action is a date with Stan which ended in disaster. But with all the  eye-candy walking around this small town, including the sexy vampire leader,  Connor, I’m definitely re-thinking my ‘no dating’ rule. I don’t get the  chance to do much about it though because some ruffians think it’s funny to  break into the Grimes’ moonshine shop.  

It doesn’t take too long to identify the shifters  responsible, but it opens up a whole can of worms. Inebriated worms, like the  ones you find in tequila. The kids weren’t just drunk, they were high. High  on a new kind of drug that’s washing into Portlock. Literally. We found bags  of the stuff floating in the harbor and it quickly became clear that this  drug is anything but recreational. It can make you high, or it can shut down  your organs quicker than you can say ‘shotgun funeral’.

We need to find the dealers and shut them down, before any  more of our town gets hoodwinked by this powerful stuff.

Oh, and there’s a small problem with the barrier. The  barrier that keeps us all safe from the cryptid monster that lurks beyond its  confines. That barrier. Rips have been appearing in it, and if it falls,  we’re all doomed.

An average day in Portlock then.
