Constable Peter Grant is thrown into a world in which gods and goddesses mingle with mortals and a long-dead evil threatens to make a comeback, in this imaginative novel by Ben Aaronovitch.
To solve a perplexing murder case, Peter Grant, London constable and sorcerer's apprentice, must plumb the haunted depths of the oldest, largest, and deadliest subway system in the world.
The evil night things that prowl Cincinnati despise witch and bounty hunter Rachel Morgan. Her new reputation for the dark arts is turning human and undead heads alike with the intent to possess, bed, and kill her. Now the pack is gathering for the first time in millennia to ravage and to rule. Suddenly, more than Rachel's soul is at stake.
In the twenty-fifth century, humankind has spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person's consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or "sleeve") making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen.
Full of secrets, mistaken identities, surprise revelations, amnesia, locked rooms and locked asylums, and an unorthodox villain, The Woman in White marked the creation of a new literary genre of suspense fiction that profoundly shaped the course of English popular writing.
To put the vampire master behind bars and save her family, witch and former bounty hunter Rachel Morgan made a desperate bargain. Now there's hell to pay—literally.

Fun, sassy, filled with action, humor, and romance, Dead Witch Walking is perfect for anyone who likes vampires, paranormal fantasy, romance, or just a great beach book.
In this follow-up to Dead Witch Walking, Harrison continues her bestselling supernatural series. To save herself and her vampire roommate, former bounty hunter Rachel Morgan must confront an ancient evil and dark secrets she's hidden even from herself.
