An act of compassion turns deadly, and finding the killer may be just as lethal.
I'm a Bureau of Souls Agent tasked with bringing supernatural criminals to justice. I'm also a supernatural Yokai spirit pretending to be a mortal. My two lives are about to collide with fatal results.
A Yokai on the run turns up dead just hours after I tried getting her to safety. Tracking down her killer means confronting half a dozen Yokai gangs in Los Angeles and possibly exposing my lifelong secret.
Can I deliver justice without being banished from the physical plane - or becoming the next victim?
In a world where the Japanese supernatural spirits known as Yokai wander the physical plane, Bureau of Souls Agent Keiko Miller has a secret of her own: she's part Yokai. She'll have to protect that secret like her job and her life depend on it, because they do.
