Hollows (Kim Harrison)

The first book in #1 New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison's Hollows series!

All the creatures of the night gather in "the Hollows" of Cincinnati, to hide, to prowl, to party . . . and to feed.

In Every Which Way But Dead, witch and former bounty hunter Rachel Morgan's managed to escape her corrupt company, survive living with a vampire, start her own runner service, and face down a vampire master.

Rachel Morgan is a witch/bounty hunter based in the Hollows, the section of Cincinnati where supernatural beings live. She here must protect an artifact from all sorts of creatures while proving a werewolf friend innocent of serial murders.

Witch detective Rachel Morgan attempts to solve the mysterious death of her boyfriend by an emotion-sucking banshee. To exact her revenge on the killer, she brings in her PI partners--Ivy, a bisexual vampire, and Jenks, a pixie in existential crisis--along with empathic psychiatrist Ford and the banshee victim's father, Federal Inderland Bureau captain Edden.
