Freebie! Prequel to Valkyrie Beastiary series, I read it recently and gave it a 4.

The Girl who Cried Banshee (Valkyrie Beastiary #0.5) by Kim McDougall

Spoiler:

Kyra Greene is a pest controller, not an exterminator. She has to be clear about that when the pests can be anything from pixies to dragons. But when her fledgling business teeters on the brink of bankruptcy, Kyra takes on a job that blurs those lines.

Now she's deep in the lawless Inbetween, trying to clear a mysterious infestation from a fishing village. But these homesteaders won’t make it easy for her. Superstitious natures are easily provoked. And a banshee living in the hills above the village makes a good scapegoat.

Can Kyra find the source of the infestation before the homesteaders force her to make a life or death decision?
