Cherry blossom lipstick: check Smokey eyes: check Skinny jeans: check Dead kid in the mirror: check For sixteen year old Mattie Hathaway, this is her normal everyday routine. She's been able to see ghosts since her mother tried to murder her when she was five years old. No way does she want anyone to know she can talk to spooks. Being a foster kid is hard enough without being labeled a freak too. Normally, she just ignores the ghosts and they go away. There's a little glitch this time. The ghost she sees is her foster sister, Sally. Everyone thinks she's just another runaway. Mattie knows the truth, though-she's dead, murdered. Foster kids look out for each other and Mattie feels like she has to help Sally, but she can't do it alone. Against her better judgment, she teams up with a young police officer and together they set out to discover the truth of Sally's disappearance. Now the killer has set his sights on her. It becomes a race to see if she can find the truth before the serial killer finds her.

When Alyssa Morrison loses her little sister to cancer, the last think she wants to think about is completing the ridiculous list she left behind. A list containing eighteen things she wants Alyssa to do before her twenty first birthday in a month. Alyssa soon finds herself following every item on the list, finding some easier then others and some. . . unexpected. But Alyssa soon uncovers the truth behind may have really caused her family to fall apart. . . and just how much her seemingly innocent little sister knew about it.

After three long months, Team VAKAD is finally back together, and Violet finally knows the secret behind all the strange occurrences happening to her. But she isn't the only one who knows... Redrum's well aware and they have their own plans. Join Violet in the final installment of the Defenders Trilogy. It all ends here.

The members of Team VAKAD of the Defensive Affairs Unit are completely opposite of each other, and it took them quite a while to finally get along. There's Aiden, the egotistical leader. Kristie, the beautiful airhead. Anthony, the know-it-all nerd. Dex, the intimidating bad boy. And Violet, the troublesome loner, who just so happens to not be so lonesome anymore. Now, after months of strenuous training, it's time for their toughest mission yet: high school. And it's a lot harder than they thought it would be. There, they meet friends and foes. They thought fighting villains was hard, but they're about to find out that high school kids are just as bad.

The Defensive Affairs Unit is a top-secret, super-powered society that protects the planet from threatening villains. After being recruited, the new recruits are split into separate teams and, after extensive training, sent out to protect the Earth with everything they've got. But then there's VAKAD, a new team of the DAU. The five members are completely different from each other, and that could cause a lot of trouble. With their egotistical leader, the beautiful airhead, the know-it-all nerd, the intimidating bad boy, and the troublesome loner, they are definitely the most difficult team the DAU has ever had to deal with. Join Violet, that troublesome loner, through her adventures and misadventures with the four idiots she is forced to call her teammates and, even worse, her friends.
