They say no good deed goes unpunished. That went double for Little Yokai.
My name's Keiko Miller. I've been an agent at the Los Angeles Bureau of Souls office for four years, and I'm one of the best. I ought to be - I'm part Yokai. Trust me when I say I know all about the supernatural entities who spilled into Japan thirty years ago. I'm one of them.
But that's a secret I guard like my job and my life depend on it, because they literally do. So when I secretly help a Yokai who winds up dead just hours later, I'm worried about more than just finding her killer. Making matters worse, my Bureau boss tasks me with solving the murder case and assigns me a by-the-book partner who doesn't like me to begin with.
Now I'm carrying around a metric ton of guilt and trying to solve this mystery without giving away my Yokai secret. The smart thing would be to play nice with my partner, mark the case unsolved, and quietly walk away. Guess I'm just not that smart.

Hunted
2021
Curiosity almost killed this kitsune.
When ordinary objects mysteriously come to life, my investigation into the cause uncovers a surprisingly sinister threat.
Rifts are appearing in the veil, the barrier separating the physical plane from the Yokai home world. People are dying. And my magical koi fish, Madara, is no longer reliably hiding my supernatural signature. Without her, I’ll be kicked out of the Bureau - maybe even off the physical plane.
I’ve got two choices if I want to solve this case. Option A is solving the case but revealing my kitsune side. Option B means keeping my secret hidden while I watch more people die.
I really need to find option C. Like, yesterday.

Mirrored
2021
I'm on the hunt for a serial killer stalking the Yokai of Los Angeles - and the killer might just be a fellow Bureau of Souls agent.
I've been dealing with a lot over the past two months. I'm in hot water with the Bureau after helping a kijo suspect escape to the Yokai homeworld of Furusato. My magical koi companion, Madara, is falling down on the job when it comes to hiding my Yokai aura. And my dad's dementia is worsening. Point is, I've got a lot on my plate. But, sure, let's add a Yokai-murdering serial killer to the list. No pressure, right? And just to make things even more dicey, the evidence is pointing to the killer being a Bureau of Souls agent. Look, I don't care where the clues lead me. I'll find whoever's responsible, even if it's a co-worker. Correction: especially if it's a co-worker. But I need to move fast. The deeper I dig into this case, the more it feels like someone is out to frame me as the rogue agent.
Mirrored is the latest installment in the Little Yokai urban fantasy collection, an action-packed, supernatural series featuring dozens of magical entities from Japan’s rich mythology.

Betrayed
2022
They tried to kidnap my suspect. Then they tried to kill me. Now it's my turn.
After a simple prisoner transport turns out to be anything but, I'm on the run and off the grid with a Yokai suspect under my protection. The Bureau and Vigilance both want the suspect back in their custody. Several Yokai want the prisoner dead. I want to know who double-crossed me.
With a shrinking list of allies and a growing list of enemies, my safest option might be the one place in Los Angeles mortals are absolutely not welcome.
After a lifetime of pretending to be just a typical mortal, my survival may now depend on wearing my kitsune mask in public. This is either going to be the performance of a lifetime or my swan song.

Justified
2022
How do you trust someone who can't be trusted?
My latest case involves a mind controlling vampiric Yokai prowling Los Angeles for victims. And it doesn’t take me long to learn they’ve got a super shady history with my current boyfriend.
But before I can solve that case, a minor mishap with an experimental ritual spell becomes a major pain in my kitsune tail. If I don’t fix things – and fast – my days at the Bureau will quickly come to an end. And if that happens, I can forget about saving my mom.
So, as much as I don’t like it, I’m about to put my life in the hands of a Yokai I know I can’t trust. I should be arresting him. Instead, I’m counting on his help.
And I'll need it to keep my Yokai side secret. After years of living two lives, I may finally have to choose one of them - and that choice will cost me everything I care about...

Then a yokai shows up at my house with an offer too good to turn he’ll free my mom if I promise to protect him.
