The Carnacki institute exists to do something about ghosts. Lay them to rest, send them packing, or kick their nasty ectoplasmic arses with extreme prejudice. The institute’s operatives are the best of the best. JC Chance: sharp, brave, charming, and almost unbearably arrogant; Melody Chambers: science geek, techno-wizard extraordinaire who keeps the antisupernatual equipment running smoothly; and Happy Jack Palmer: the telepath with the gloomy disposition, the last person anyone would want navigating through their head.

Gideon Sable is a thief and a con man. He specializes in stealing the kind of things that can't normally be stolen. Like a ghost's clothes, or a photo from a country that never existed. He even stole his current identity. Who was he originally? Now, that would be telling. One thing's for sure though, he's not the bad guy. The people he steals from always have it coming. Gideon's planning a heist, to steal the only thing that matters from the worst man in the world. To get past his security, he's going to need a crew who can do the impossible....

Gideon's planning a heist, to steal the only thing that matters from the worst man in the world. To get past his security, he's going to need a crew who can do the impossible...but luckily, he has the right people in mind. The Damned, the Ghost, the Wild Card...and his ex-girlfriend, Annie Anybody. A woman who can be anyone, with the power to make technology fall in love with her. If things go well, they'll all get what they want. And if they're lucky, they might not even die trying. 

In the ruins of Caswell, Maine, Carter Bennett learned the truth of what had been right in front of him the entire time. And then it - he - was gone. Desperate for answers, Carter takes to the road, leaving family and the safety of his pack behind, all in the name of a man he only knows as a feral wolf. But therein lies the danger: wolves are pack animals, and the longer Carter is on his own, the more his mind slips toward the endless void of Omega insanity.

Mackenzie and Lucan should be celebrating their newly awakened bond. Instead, they're working to stop Jasper, the tyrannical Dragon Head, from moving forward with the next step of his sinister plan. If he succeeds, GreenRiver's Mythos shifters won't be the only ones who suffer. But challenging Jasper for his throne means preparing for danger. Chaos ensues as a rogue guild accepts a bounty on Lucan's head, and Mackenzie will stop at nothing to keep her mate from the same fate as his father. After all, Lucan's heart and soul belong to Mackenzie.

Lucan now knows who—and what—Mackenzie truly is. She is Terra, the supernatural boogieman whose tales of carnage are used by parents to bring wayward children in line. But she's captive, and the longer it takes to free her, the less choice he has—break the bond, or die. Mackenzie—thrust back into the nightmare of her childhood—learns the awful truth. Her captors have no mercy . . . and now they know how to force her to do their bidding. Her Achilles' heel. And they'll use that knowledge against her in the worst possible way.

Mackenzie's paranoia hasn't ebbed, if anything, it's only gotten worse, and it's starting to wear thin on her family. Add in a new familiar, and her sister's sudden rebellion, and tempers ignite. As a hunter for Catch and Release, Mackenzie doesn't choose her assignments, they are chosen for her. So, when Lucan has doubts about the security for the upcoming peace summit, he hires Mackenzie to be his deadly arm candy. But being on Lucan's arm has an unexpected effect.

Mackenzie works for Catch and Release, a bounty-hunting guild, and she loves her job. She goes after the usual suspects: Rogue vampires, feral shifters, and crazed mages. Nightmare stuff. The last thing she ever imagined was Lucan, an infuriating and high-ranking dragon shifter, hiring her to find a child kidnapped from his Tribe. Even though her magical talents lean more towards bodyguarding and hunting dangerous beings, condemning a kid to death isn't who she is. But as Mackenzie gets deeper into her hunt, she uncovers deadly secrets surrounding the child, the kidnapper, and Lucan himself...

After being held captive and tortured for months, Mackenzie is finally home. But her peace is shattered when Master Dagmar asks for her help. Children are still going missing, and the Task Force created to stop these abductions is hitting road bumps at every turn.

Welcome to White Haven — where the magic is real, and the secrets run deeper than anyone imagined. White Haven is no ordinary Cornish town. Five witches. Five families. Five grimoires hidden for centuries, and someone who wants them badly enough to kill. When Avery and the other witches begin...

In White Haven, the greatest threats don't always come from outside. At Beltane, ancient magic floods the town and desire becomes dangerous. Something is at the heart of the chaos, and someone has been pulling strings all along. Relationships fracture. Trust breaks. And the answer to who is...

As White Haven enjoys the Beltane fire festival, a creature of smoke, shadow, and searing flame emerges from the celebrations with one burning ambition: to claim the dragon eggs hidden in Ravens' Wood and reshape the world. Events further spiral out of control when Avery decides to use an ancient dragon spell from the family grimoire to bring her mother and sister back to White Haven, demanding answers after years of silence. The spell is more powerful than expected, and the family reunion is as fiery as Beltane—especially when Helena is involved.

Considered by the author to be his finest work yet, this is a novel of realistic detail, heartfelt emotion, and dazzling imagination that builds a world listeners won't want to leave and spins a tale they won't want to end.

It figures. Just when Bradfordian bookshop clerk Toby Dexter finally works up the nerve to talk to his secret crush, she darts into an open door. Toby follows, and in that second, everything changes. Though it still looks like Bradford-on-Avon, the town’s suddenly chatty ATM and river mermaids are the first clues that something is quite out of place - namely, Toby. The moment he stepped through that door, Toby entered the magical parallel world of Mysterie.
