Alternate cover edition of ASIN B0799PRZM3 She never wanted a damn partner... Meet Piper Shaw. She's one of the Netherworld Paranormal Police Department's toughest. She's also an immortal, and she's got one hell of a chip on her shoulder. Meet Reaper Payne. He's an actual reaper. Yes, one of those guys who ferries the dead. Unfortunately, he broke a rule of his order, and it was a doozy. His punishment is to dwell alongside the living for one hundred years. They're both Retrievers in the PPD. Essentially, they hunt in the Overworld to bring back supernaturals who have overstayed their welcome. Piper is clear about one thing: She does not want a partner. They just became partners. Gallien Cross is an escaped prisoner. He's been turning normals in the Overworld into vampire zombies. His goal is to build an army that will keep him from going back to prison. Piper and Reaper must put aside their differences as they battle through tough goons, vampire zombies, and Cross himself. But things aren't always what they seem, and when she finally learns the full story, it may just be too late for everyone… If you like Jim Butcher, Domino Finn, Michael Anderle, M. D. Massey, Rick Gualtieri, Orlando A. Sanchez, K.F. Breene, Shayne Silvers, Ilona Andrews, Brad Magnarella, Patricia Briggs, or Kim Harrison...you'll have a blast with the first book in the Netherworld Paranormal Police Department.

She hates asking for backup... Officers Piper Shaw and Reaper Payne are at it again. This time in San Fransisco. Lucien Bane wants blood. After turning from a mild-mannered wolf into a near-uber who is bent on dominating the city, he's now taken up shop in Alcatraz. And he's not alone. He's convinced a number of wolves to follow him by claiming he's descended from a god. Fun. With the fate of San Fransisco in their hands, Piper and Payne must pull out all the stops. They'll dig deep as they fight through Fisherman's Wharf, deal with difficult hotel clerks, and even play dress-up to entice Bane's minions out of a seedy nightclub. But none of that can prepare them for the ferocity of what's to come. When push comes to shove, will Piper finally admit she needs the one thing she hates to ask for? Namely... backup.

The fae queen is beautiful. Too bad it's only skin deep... Temperance is the queen of the fae. After tasting true power at the hands of an evil mage, she's bent on ruling the Netherworld. She wants it all...and she wants it now. The chief of the Netherworld PPD calls all hands on deck to fight this new threat. But there's a problem. Piper and Payne are Retrievers, which means they have no jurisdiction in the Netherworld. Worse, their trainees, Officers Brazen and Kix, have been kidnapped by the fae. Even more fun, they get assigned a stoned wizard who has a serious case of the munchies. Piper & Payne have to break the rules and sneak into Faeland if they're to stop all of this. Getting caught is not an option, and failure means the end of the Netherworld as they know it. It's a shame there's a psychopathic torturer who has other plans for them... If you like Jim Butcher, Domino Finn, Michael Anderle, M. D. Massey, Rick Gualtieri, Orlando A. Sanchez, K.F. Breene, Shayne Silvers, Ilona Andrews, Brad Magnarella, Patricia Briggs, or Kim Harrison...you'll have a blast with the third book in the Netherworld Paranormal Police Department.

Sometimes you just need to blow things up... Keller wants to take over the Netherworld PPD. After decades of waiting, he's finally weakened the precinct enough to take his shot. Now is the time to strike. It'll take everything the PPD has to stand their ground and stop him. But sometimes numbers just aren't enough. They've been depleted pretty badly. Worse, there are far more rookies than veterans at this point. Even more fun, Reaper's beloved turtle, Agnes, has ended up in a bit of a pickle, which is only slightly better than becoming the main ingredient in a bowl of soup. She's trapped in the PPD building with Keller and his goons. Piper & Payne have to find a way to get into that building, save Agnes, and destroy Keller's plans. Easier said than done. If they fail, Keller will finish what Temperance started...taking over the Netherworld. Do Piper & Payne have what it takes to save the precinct a second time? If you like Jim Butcher, Domino Finn, Michael Anderle, M. D. Massey, Rick Gualtieri, Orlando A. Sanchez, K.F. Breene, Shayne Silvers, Ilona Andrews, Brad Magnarella, Patricia Briggs, or Kim Harrison...you'll have a blast with the fourth book in the Netherworld Paranormal Police Department.

Some truths you just don't want to know... After Keller decimated the Netherworld PPD, Piper and her crew take it upon themselves to bring the fight to him. But is there a traitor in their midst? Only time will tell... They head topside to New York City and the fun begins. Battling drones in Central Park kicks off a string of events that pits all of Keller's goons against the squad. They're completely overwhelmed until the entirety of the NY PPD gets involved...but even that may not be enough to take down the evil mage and his powerful entourage. They'll need to give everything they've got if they're to even have a chance of dethroning the bastard. The bottom line is that if Keller survives this time, the world falls. Fortunately, Piper & Payne have a heroic turtle on their side... If you like Jim Butcher, Domino Finn, Michael Anderle, M. D. Massey, Rick Gualtieri, Orlando A. Sanchez, K.F. Breene, Shayne Silvers, Ilona Andrews, Brad Magnarella, Patricia Briggs, or Kim Harrison...you'll have a blast with the fifth book in the Netherworld Paranormal Police Department.
