  She's the perfect suburban mom. Loving wife. Devoted mother. 
  She's also a killer who's been hunting for over a century. 
  Trish has mastered the art of the double life. PTA meetings and playdates by day. Stalking prey by night. Her husband, Randel, has no idea that his wife's "yoga nights" end in bloodless corpses. Her baby son, Darwin, sleeps peacefully, unaware that Mommy's bedtime stories could fill a morgue. 
  But when her latest hunt at Miller University goes catastrophically wrong, leaving a witness alive, Trish's carefully constructed world begins to crumble. 
  Now she's being hunted by people who know exactly what she is. As her enemies close in, Trish faces an impossible choice: 
  Protect the lie... or protect her family. 
  Because some secrets are worth killing for. And some monsters will do anything for the ones they love. 
  "Couldn't put it down." ★★★★★ 
  "Sharp, pointy prose." ★★★★★ 
  "This was delightfully dark, twisted." ★★★★★ 
  Perfect for fans of Dexter, Let the Right One In, and Anne Rice's darker works.

  A USA Today Bestselling Series! 
  Stockings are hung, lights are lit, and the annual Branson Falls holiday tradition of leaving gifts on a neighbor’s doorstep, ringing the doorbell, and running, has begun. 
  When the gifts turn from the usual baked goods to cash and other high value presents, theories about the mystery gift giver range from miracles to magic elves. Kate’s not sure who the secret Santa is, but she has some theories. 
  That’s not the only exciting thing happening for the holidays. There’s also a classy art display, a sneaky seven-year-old, and an unfortunate ugly sweater assignment. Kate’s on top of it, investigating all the naughty and nice magic for the holiday season. 
  Note 
  This is a novelette—a shorter holiday-themed side story about shenanigans in the Kate Saxee Mystery Series world. The last book in the series ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. While readers get some hints in Devilishly Short #2 about what happens next in this story, the details won’t be included until book 5. This is because some readers read the full-length novels, but not the shorts. However, if you read the short, you’ll have more information than those who don’t!

  For the Unchipped, safety is nothing but an illusion...

While the other Unchipped near the City of California scavenge for food amid the constant threat of gunfire, Bill's spent the last two years at the Mansion--a haven for the select few who design products to be sold in the green city. He's safe for now... unlike his friend Kaarina, who is leading a revolution on the other side of the world. 
  Bill is the Mansion's CEO, but he's haunted by the act of violence that got him the job. Danger lies beyond the protective gates of this repressive sanctuary, but a carefree existence inside the City of California remains mysterious, intriguing... and unattainable. 
  When he discovers the trailer just outside the fence, Bill is forced to make an impossible choice. Defend the Mansion by killing the intruders... or let them live and risk everything he has?
