Skinwalker (Jane Yellowrock, Book 1)

Meet shapeshifting skinwalker Jane Yellowrock in the first novel in the New York Times bestselling series that captures “the essence of urban fantasy” (SF Site).
Jane Yellowrock is the last of her kind—a skinwalker of Cherokee descent who can turn into any creature she desires and hunts vampires for a living. But now she’s been hired by Katherine Fontaneau, one of the oldest vampires in New Orleans and the madam of Katies’s Ladies, to hunt a powerful rogue vampire who’s killing other vamps.
Amidst a bordello full of real “ladies of the night,” and a hot Cajun biker with a panther tattoo who stirs her carnal desire, Jane must stay focused and complete her mission—or else the next skin she’ll need to save just may be her own...

Very enjoyable read. The pacing was nice, the plot interesting, and the characters intriguing. Part Kung Fu (the 70s TV series) and part The Hollows (Kim Harrison novels), there is as much self discovery as mystery solving. There is a whole lot of talk about tea, enough to be interesting without tipping over to tedium. Hunter does a fair job of giving you a feel for New Orleans.
The one thing I did not like about this book was the shift of narration (this book is written in first person narrative) between the two protagonists. This bothered me only because one of the characters is non-human and the narration tries to emulate that. Although I did get used to it by the end of the book, at first it was jarring and difficult to follow.
