There’s never a dull moment in the Supernatural Travel Agency. This time, I’m leading my girls on an expedition to a mysterious dimension.

Nachdem Kane Walker vom Militär zum weltumspannenden Geheimdienst der Menschheit, auch als die Agency bekannt, zwangsversetzt wurde, entwickelte er sich zu einem erstklassigen Spion und wurde für besonders heikle und gefährliche Missionen in aller Welt eingesetzt. Gemeinsam mit seinem neuen Freund und Technikexperten Jaxo und seiner widerwilligen Partnerin Jane wird er auf einen zunächst harmlos erscheinenden Mordfall angesetzt, der sich als Teil eines groß angelegten Plans für einen globalen Terroranschlag herausstellt, dessen Ausmaße in der Geschichte der Erde bis dato unvorstellbar waren.

When Maine took up her troll father's mantle, she thought he was dead. She was right. Sort of . . . Finding out that an aspect of him went to another world comes as a surprise. Maine has to get over her shock because he's been fighting a secret war for decades and he needs her help. Now she must traverse the fabric of reality and join her father's fight to stop the forces of Chaos before they destroy not only her world, but all known worlds.

Maine is in prison for a crime she didn't commit. For once, the prisoner's cry of "innocence" is true. She didn't do anything wrong. Being there of her own free will doesn't change the fact that she's locked up in a mythical prison, surrounded by the worst of the worst. Disguised as an oni demon, Maine hopes to find the key to Chaos's realm. That key could be Earth's last chance of survival, and it's being held by the creature who killed her father.

Between setting up the office and hiring new preternatural staff with some surprising...talents, Taylor tasks Remy with a new case. She assumes he will stick to her instructions, but this is Remy: reformed frat boy. Low compliance. With a desperate need to prove himself.... Of course, he won’t stick to the plan. So when things heat up with the dwarven cartel - and the preternatural world order hangs in the balance - it'll take everything Taylor has to prevent the city of New York from being exposed to all she's managed to keep secret for centuries.

Being a human immune to magic helped Sophie Lawson get promoted. It's also made her a major, very reluctant player in a game that stretches beyond even the Underworld. Having handsome buttoned-down Englishman Will as her new guardian is one tempting blessing, especially since sexy fallen angel Alex is mysteriously MIA lately. But as a frightening number of demons start disappearing around the city, Sophie suspects that an Armageddon-level prophecy is about to become everyone's nightmare.

Sage's dream is to be a top chef. So when he gets to be a finalist on one of Hollywood's biggest cooking shows, he's over the moon. Until, that is, the top chef is poisoned. Maine and Noff have to trade magic for the fake glitz and glamor of Hollywood to try and clear Sage's name. To make matters worse, Maine is experiencing a string of bad luck that is literally flooding her life with grief. Time is running out. If Maine doesn't find evidence to clear Sage's name, it's a maximum-security prison for him.

Sophie Lawson may be a mere human with no special abilities except a strong immunity to magic. But the havoc she's wreaked on the supernaturals who come up against the Underworld Detection Agency have earned her plenty of enemies. Still, a girl can't freak out every time a horribly barbecued corpse is found with her business card in its hand. Or see a sudden glut of earthquakes, wildfires and three-headed dogs as just another day in California.

Maine cast a good luck spell to save the love of her life from prison, but at what cost? Magic is controlled by chaos, and with every instance of magically enhanced good luck comes some corresponding bad luck. Sage is free, but so is the Demon who created the Mantle. The Demon has escaped from his celestial prison. He is gathering his minions and is gunning for the Mantle. But the Mantle isn't the only weapon the Demon wants. There are other, more powerful items around . . . and none more so than Father Time's Clock.

Someone is trying to kill Death. As in the Grim Reaper, San La Muerte, King Yama, Maveth, Death. Yeah, that guy. But if Death dies, who takes his place? That is the eternal question. Maine is hoping to avoid finding out the answer. She and Noff have taken on the harbinger of souls as their client, vowing to protect him as he competes in The Conjuring—the high stakes card game played by supernatural beings. Death is the reigning champion, and he has everything to lose.

Maine's troubles are only just beginning. The Mantle is still catnip to assassins. News of her victory is out and another liquidator of the living is after her. That would be enough trouble, if her ex wasn't also in town, proclaiming his undying love for her. Where was this adoration when they were dating? To make things worse, her pint-sized best friend has visitors. Noff's pack is being terrorized by a ruthless hunter with supernatural strength, speed, and senses. Running with the wolves is tough . . . especially when you're the size of a chihuahua.

Maine doesn't like her father. It doesn't help that he's a troll. As in a literal, lives-under-a-bridge troll. When her father is killed, Maine returns home to settle his estate and learns that he wasn't any ordinary troll, but the town hero. Seems trolls can be superheroes, too. When Maine inherited her father's Mantle, she got more than a demonically possessed magical cape that reveals one's weakness. She also inherited several busloads of mythical adversaries. Thanks, Dad!
