- Summary
- 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, 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, ready to prove that she's more than capable of writing a guide to NYC--for the undead.

- Summary
- Fleeing North Carolina after a career-derailing lapse in judgment, travel writer Zoë Norris returns to her native New York City in an attempt to make a fresh start. She talks her way into a job with Underground Publishing, a vampire-owned press whose city-themed guidebooks cater to the "coterie" (members of this highly secretive supernatural community take offense at the term "monster"). However, as the only human on staff, Zoë must quickly learn to navigate a society whose citizens would sooner eat her than employ her. - Description by Gillian Speace
