Exiled from Sète after Hiraeth’s failure to catch the Phantom, a spectral assassin of the elite. they probe the murder of mayor Bob Alaire, a crime that defies the Phantom’s pattern. From their decaying outpost on Heimat’s edge, Henri navigates Heimat’s vibrant squares, he encounters Velouria, a shopkeeper whose pointed ears and enchanted wares whisper of ancient magic, and Jonk, a towering protector burdened by unspoken vows. Together, they unravel a tapestry of betrayal and Deceit, where every step unearths a truth that could save, or doom, a town teetering on the edge of oblivion. With the Phantom’s shadow closing in and a savage killer’s trail growing bolder, Heimat’s charm masks a deadly pulse. Will Henri and Hiraeth crack the case, or will the village’s secrets claim them first?

Summary
Metropolis, 1953. A disgraced bureaucrat is hauled into court, a defense contractor’s name keeps showing up in all the wrong places, and Clark Kent is already late filing copy. Between deadline sprints and backroom whispers, Clark, Lois, and Jimmy start tugging on a thread that just might unravel into something far bigger: something with ties to foreign oil, shadow money, and a familiar bald name buried in the fine print.

Summary
“ACAB,” goes the day’s refrain. That included me, the baddest cop in the department—so bad they took my badge away.
But even a bastard might redeem herself, when given a second chance.
A dame came into my life, the kind that rolls with hot commodities and deals in illicit meds. She forgave me my sins and gave me that second chance in exchange for my virginity, and helped me pick up the trail of a missing activist the police were doing nil to find.
I tracked our gone-guy to the Red-Light District, where I made my first customer: a powerful cop, only asking for a little company… and my sexual loyalty, for which I would receive my dream job. Then another dame with a knack for pissing off her coworkers joined me in sexual servitude… then a pretty cupcake and a dapper gentleman showed me what real men are like… then a doll with hazel eyes and a doctor of the dead ate me up… In less than a week, I was drowning in nookie.
I could have stopped at the one dame, but I can’t resist a hot muffin or a silky creampie. My nose is as good at picking up on perfume as it is at sniffing out crime.
And I’m a sucker for the human bouquet.

Summary
Downton Abbey Halloween Special:
It is 1936, and MGM’s golden girl Hannah Banks finds herself in peril. Three weeks from filming her next picture, she is already in “delicate condition” with her co-star’s child. In the factory of dreams, such troubles are quietly erased. But Hannah runs—straight into the Los Angeles offices of The Sketch, the society magazine whose visiting editor, Lady Edith Pelham, still believes in truth and decency.
Hollywood has other plans. What began as scandal becomes something more sinister, as whispers spread of an ancient eye turned upon Hannah and the unborn life she carries. When the studios’ hidden powers move from gossip to blood, Edith turns to her ward and partner, George Crawley—a young man with a reputation on both sides of the law, known in shadows as "The Comet".
Together, aunt and nephew face not merely the cruelties of the dream-machine but a deeper rot festering beneath the lights. Now, as thunder rolls above Sunset Boulevard and the studios whisper of another “missing girl,” those who know the truth keep their doors locked and their lights low. For beneath the dazzle of Hollywood, the old gods are awake—and they’ve taken a liking to the pictures.
