Monster Hunter International

Owen Zastava Pitt works as an accountant until a bad day at the office ends with a werewolf attacking him. Afterward Earl Harbinger and Julie Shackleford visit to recruit him into Monster Hunter International, a private company run by one family that collects government bounties for killing supernatural creatures.

Owen learns that monsters are real and that the job pays well and can get him killed. Regulators and paperwork turn out to be nearly as much trouble as the undead.

Soon he is pinned between swarms of undead minions, hostile federal agents, a ghost living in his head, and the cursed family of the woman he loves. Meanwhile an ancient entity called the Cursed One returns to settle a vendetta that is centuries old.

This is urban fantasy with a lot of gunfights, a comic streak and a fast, action-first pace. It opens the Monster Hunter International series. Owen has to survive a job he never applied for while the Cursed One closes in.
