There are things that Áine Tracey knows about her family. She knows that the family legacy is a long, bloody one, and that her father holds New York City's drug trade in two tight hands. She knows that one day she'll be a part of it, but she never expected to find that out by waking up covered in blood that's not her own. Blood curses run deep, and Áine is unwilling to accept the inevibility that once the blood starts, it won't end until a family member dies. The interruptions and snooping of mediocre reporter Laslo Hugh is just one more annoyance she's determined to solve. Laslo, however, has other plans -- the Tracey family is a black hole of secrets just waiting to be uncovered, and he intends to be the one reporter they can't buy off, blood curses and bleeding girls be damned. Their investigation leads them into the events surrounding the curse as the death toll spikes, and in the end, Áine may be forced to take family matters into her own hands.

Of all of the naughty, mischievous, disrespectful, and downright horrible things that children can be, a badling is perhaps one of the worst. Badlings abandon books without finishing them, leaving their characters sad and lonely-not to mention angry. Meet Bells, Peacock, Rusty, and Grand, four ragtag friends convicted of this monstrous crime. As punishment, they get sucked into a book of unfinished stories, whose patchwork pages they must traverse...and read to the end this time.
