comment
 An Urban Fantasy series by C.E. Murphy.Joanne Walker is a 26-year-old Wrench Wench / Fair Cop in Seattle who gets run through with a sword and is offered a choice: die, or become a shaman. She chooses the latter option, and ends up becoming an Overt Operative (not that she has much choice in the matter when one has to do magic inside the police station) working on solving paranormal problems.Being a shaman was supposed to be a Puberty Superpower, but due to a few disastrous things such as Teen Pregnancy happening to her at the age of fifteen, Joanne ended up Forgetting The Call until forced to choose otherwise. Now she ends up learning "on the job" a lot, and thus has a ton of How Do I Shot Web? going on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Shamanic powers include Healing Hands, many journeys to the Mental World and Dream Land, and Aura Vision, being a Seer, and I See Dead People on occasion. New Powers as the Plot Demands (or Joanne discovers that she can do them) adds to this list frequently.Books in the series so far include: Urban Shaman Banshee Cries, a novella in the Winter Moon anthology (with Mercedes Lackey and Tanith Lee) Thunderbird Falls Coyote Dreams Walking Dead Demon Hunts Spirit Dances Raven Calls No Dominion, a Kickstarter-funded novella taking place during Raven Calls Mountain Echoes Shaman Rises

 Anchored Ship: Joanne may crush on Gary (see below), but she really has the hots for her Da Chief boss, Morrison. However, since he's her boss, it's not going to happen.

comment
 Benevolent Boss: Morrison comes off as a hardass, and isn't too fond of magical crap going on, but is a pretty reasonable guy when he has to deal with it. At least he's sensible enough to put Joanne and/or Billy on any particularly weird cases.

 All Amazons Want Hercules: sort of done here. Joanne realizes that dating a Non-Action Guy who wants her to be home with the kids isn't going to work, and she needs a partner who can deal with her going off to save the world.
