    The world has been taken over by zombies. Small pockets of humanity remain. Cities lay in ruins. But none of this can stop Jake Trundle from solving the biggest case of his career because Jake Trundle is also a zombie. And somewhere deep within the recesses of his long dead brain flicker the embers of the last case he was working before the world turned to hell. And now he is compelled to solve it for all eternity, or at least until New Orleans falls down around his ears. He doesn't know why, he doesn't know how and he doesn't know much of anything when the smell of fresh meat is on the wind. But he's going to solve this case anyway. Even if it kills him all over again. Jake Trundle is a zombie. But he was a detective first. And nothing can take that away from him. Not even death.

    Returning to Moonfell wasn’t part of my plan, and it completely altered my life. 
    	New house. New friends. And reuniting with my eccentric aunt brought some joy back into my soul. I even managed to crack a smile every now and then. 
    	Just when I thought things couldn’t get any more complicated, I find myself caught between my duty as an investigator and my growing feelings for the enigmatic Dash—the not-werecat. He saved us from the threat known as The Forsaken. And now I have to turn him in to the county sheriff. 
    	Or do I? 
    	A string of lifeless bodies haunt the streets of Moonfell, each one more gruesome than the last. Werewolf gone mad? Possibly. But as the bodies pile up, doubt creeps in. Something about this feels off, and I can’t help but wonder if something more sinister is at play.  
    	While I try to unravel the mysteries surrounding Moonfell’s recent deaths, Dash continues to weave in and out of my life with his own secrets and agendas.  
    	As the body count rises, a threat looms over my life, and I can’t help but feel like I am walking through a minefield with no way out. Every step is a reminder that someone or something is out there, waiting to kill me.

    "No one calls me a fairy! Even a misinformed child," said the son known as Lance or the Necromancer shortly. 
    "Do you prefer serial killer!" asked his father. 
    Lance scoffed. "I prefer avenging angel," said Lance coldly he was fate's hitman he killed the worst of the worst for him and the police called him a serial killer. 
    "You would," said the reaper king, "How was the child when you took her?" 
    "She was a pain she insisted I was the Death Fairy because the tooth fairy took teeth so the reapers were death fairies because they took the dead. I keep telling her I wasn't the death fairy I was a grim reaper. she wouldn't listen. I told her she wasn't going to heaven. She cried. I told her she was going Elysian she cried more. I asked her why she cried. 
    She told me she was sad to hear queen Elsa was dead too. Kids!" Lance said frustratedly.

    Dive into the chilling atmosphere of The Night Birds, a spine-tingling psychological thriller that will haunt your thoughts long after the final note fades.
     
    When Eileen Wolfe returns to the fog-shrouded Maine coastline of her childhood, she expects only quiet nights and familiar faces. Instead, she finds the townsfolk gripped by inexplicable violence—ravens and crows gathering in murderous flocks, savage attacks plaguing anyone who dares wander after dusk. As eerie messages carved into driftwood begin to surface, Eileen realizes these are not random acts of bird behavior but the work of something far more sinister.
