    Welcome to Kilhaven. Rookie Officer Norman Green is a small-town human living in a big city of paranormal beings. Fresh out of the Kilhaven Police Academy, he’s got a lot to learn about the violent and filthy side of law enforcement. Luckily, Green has field training officer Heather Valance to show him how things are done. And sometimes how they should never be done. She may not always play by the rules, but what Officer Valance lacks in decorum, she makes up for with being one terrifying werewolf bitch. Which is great when things go south in a heavily shapeshifter sector. But it’s not so great when it comes to Green’s looming board review that will determine whether he stays or goes after his probationary period. As long as Green can win over Valance—and not get himself or anyone else killed—he just might make it through his rookie year …If you’re hungry for a heaping pile of police procedural with a sloppy side of paranormal creatures and a sprinkle of vulgar jokes, buy Shift Work to satisfy your unhealthy cravings.

She’s only there to find out why a woman she’s never met would leave her a house. A veritable castle that has seen better days. She couldn’t possibly accept it, but the lawyer assigned to the case practically begs her to take it off her hands, mostly because she’s scared of it. The house. The inanimate structure that, as far as Dephne can tell, has never hurt a fly. Though it does come with some baggage. A pesky neighbor who wants her gone. A scruffy cat who’s a bit of a jerk. And a handyman bathed in ink who could moonlight as a supermodel for GQ. She decides to give it three days, and not because of the model. She feels at home in Salem. Safe. But even that comes to a screeching halt when people begin knocking on her door day and night, begging for her help to locate their lost objects. Come to find out, they think she’s a witch. And after a few mysterious mishaps, Dephne is beginning to wonder if they’re right.
