Susan Michaels was once the hottest reporter on the Beltway Beat. Until a major scandal ruined her life and left her writing stories about alien babies and Elvis sightings. Life as she once knew it is over, or so she thinks until she gets a lead on the biggest story in town: The Seattle Slayer. She heads to the local animal shelter, expecting a tip on the latest rash of killings. Instead, she gets a story about the mayor feeding citizens to a ring of vampires... yeah. Just another day in her life.

Even more distressing than the police officer’s dementia, she gets talked into adopting a cat she’s allergic to. Her first thought is to neuter said cat. But when that cat turns out to be a shapeshifting man who claims to be an immortal vampire slayer, her second thought is don’t neuter the cat...yet. Next thought: seek professional help.

Susan doesn’t know what to believe, but as she’s drawn into Ravyn Kontis’s paranormal world that exists beside her own, she comes to realize that the story that could bring her credibility is too incredulous to believe. Now it’s no longer a question of bringing the truth to her readers, it’s a matter of saving everyone’s lives and souls, and her only ally is a man she’s allergic to. One who is wanted dead by supernatural beings who have now set their sights on her.

In the world of the Dark-Hunters, it’s always dangerous. But never more so than when one very human woman can shatter their entire world with just one story. The only question is... will she?
