by Mur Lafferty

"Because of the disaster that was her last job, Zoe is searching for a fresh start as a travel book editor in the tourist-centric New York City. After stumbling across a seemingly perfect position though, Zoe is blocked at every turn because of the one thing she can't take off her resume -- human. Not to be put off by anything -- especially not her blood drinking boss or death goddess coworker -- Zoe delves deep into the monster world. But her job turns deadly when the careful balance between human and monsters starts to crumble -- with Zoe right in the middle"-- ""An exciting, witty urban fantasy series from podcaster Mur Lafferty, about a travel writer who takes a job with a shady publishing company in New York, only to find that she must write a guide to the city - for the undead!" --Provided by the publisher"
