About this series
Joanne Walker has no use for the mystical, and up until this morning, the mystical had no use for her.
But an ancient god has reared his head, and the all-too-real riders of the mythical Wild Hunt are menacing the streets of Seattle. Caught in the middle of an age-old grudge, Joanne is forced to choose between accepting an unexpected magical heritage and facing this immortal enemy, or...dying.
(Look, nobody said it was a good choice.)
Guided by a cryptic coyote who visits her dreams and armed with magic she doesn't know how to use, Joanne is befriended by a nosy cab driver who wants to tag along for the adventure as she hangs on to the desperate hope that she might survive the next few days.
Joanne's journey from police department mechanic to urban shaman begins here...whether she likes it or not!

The last thing reluctant shaman Joanne Walker wants is to be assigned to a case of ritual murders. It'd be creepy enough all on its own, but her boss, already trusting her magic more than Jo does herself, suspects there's more to it than just a serial killer. As Joanne is pulled more deeply into the bloody mire, she begins to realize this is a murderer with a deadline—the changing winter moon seems to be key to the power they're building. But Joanne's not the only one entangled in the increasingly dangerous magic raised by the killer: she has a protector, someone who has already given up their life to keep Joanne safe…and who may be the only person able to stand between Joanne and a dark power far greater than she's ready to handle…. Banshee Cries was originally published as part of the Winter Moon anthology, and was fondly numbered '1.5 of the Walker Papers.' With the reissue of the series, Banshee Cries has been elevated to book two, and the series numbering henceforth reflects that change.

People are supposed to be thrilled about getting shiny new magical powers. At least, that's what reluctant shaman Joanne Walker always imagined. But shamanic healing comes with expectations and duties way beyond her comfort zone, and she would like nothing more than to stick her head in the sand and hope it all goes away rather than adapt to her unexpected new gifts. (Spoiler alert: playing ostrich never makes the problem go away.) When her cryptic spirit guide Coyote disappears, Joanne, still hoping to find her way back to a non-magical life where she only has to worry about herself and her beloved classic Mustang, looks for help from other sources...and is relieved to find a gathering of witches eager to accept her into their coven. Their approach to magic is different from what Joanne has learned so far, but there are other guides in the magical Lower World, and Joanne begins to feel that she can handle this—as long as other people are in charge. But the harder she pulls away from her alarming new talents, the farther Joanne moves from the path that she's meant to be on. As demons rise from the Lower World, and dangerous spells are cast, it's the people around her who will pay the price...unless Joanne stops searching for a way back to the life she used to know.
