Max has spent the past several thousand lifetimes as a Reaper among humans and, despite the pleasures of a tidy country home with a well-dusted library and a finely tuned Harley, he's starting to get bored. His best friend gives him some advice: "Drink some scotch. Bed a woman. Join a rock band. Get it out of your system, and get back to your dutiful service." Max tried, but he ended up getting drunk, marrying the girl in Vegas, and accidentally triggering a chain of events that could end with the destruction of the human race. Now he needs to make things right again but the Reaper quickly learns that the magic of being human comes with one grim reality.

Mary "Stein" Thompson has never been to school, well, save for a couple of months in a private academy (it didn't work out quite the way she thought it would). So, when she begins at a public school, her parental units (and teachers) are flabbergasted. What's worse are the string of murders in the area that are eerily similar to those of the past, but that's impossible as the perpetrators have been locked up for eight years. Or have they? Genius is the story of a girl with connections to brutal murders trying to survive the return of her worst nightmare (with the help of her newfound friends). It's not as dark as the summary makes it seem (sorry, you could probably consider it a romcom [or a thriller {really I'm all over the place, get used to the parentheses}]).
