WILDsound Best Scene Reading: DEPARTMENT OF UNSEEN AFFAIRS, by Sam Speron

Alex Mercer just wanted a steady government job — dental, pension, and no explosions. Instead, he reports to the Department of Unseen Affairs: a crumbling bureaucracy where ghosts punch timecards, werewolves complain about overtime, and the coffee machine occasionally levitates. His new colleagues include Claude, a centuries-old vampire with the attitude of a jaded tax auditor; Lila, a caffeine-fueled witch running HR like a crisis hotline; Gary, a snarky werewolf perpetually one paperwork error away from a full moon meltdown; and Gail, a human receptionist who’s seen too much and stopped caring around 1958.
