Cityscape - Melissa Gunn

She knows who killed her ex, but can she bring the killer to justice?

Part-dryad private investigator Ngaire has her work cut out for her as she moonlights as an arborist, crosses words (and occasionally pruning tools) with orcs and elves, and most important of all, tries to keep her daughter safe from the killer: a rogue wood spirit with a side hustle in real estate.

But there's something deeper at work in the city. While werewolves bay about territorial rights above ground, a secret network is forming below the city. Can Ngaire tap into the network to solve her problems, or will her reluctance to metamorphose keep her from integrating with this critical resource?
