My pick this week:

Spirit Dances - Walker Papers #6

by C.E. Murphy

Publication Date: April 1st, 2011

Amazon Pre-Order: Spirit Dances (Luna Books)

For Seattle detective Joanne Walker, spring is about new beginnings, She's mastered her shamanic abilities (mostly), survived a cannibalistic serial killer (barely) and now she's facing the biggest challenge of her career - attending a dance contest with her sexy boss, Captain Michael Morrison. But when the performance - billed as transformative - actually changes her into a COYOTE, she and Morrison have bigger things to deal with.
 
And there's more. Homeless people are disappearing, a mystical murder puts Joanne way out of her jurisdiction and with the full moon coming on, it's looking like the killer is a creature that can't possibly exist.
But Jo could probably handle all of that, if one ordinary homicide hadn'y pushed her to the VERY EDGE...
 
Cop or Shaman? The choice isn't easy. But it's one she just might have to make..
