Pretty When They Cry
Seattle has always had its ghosts-the missing women, the unsolved disappearances, the cases that fade into cold files. But Detective Sarah Navarro knows better. These women didn't just vanish. They were taken. For years, she's hunted the shadow lurking beneath the city's neon glow, a predator known only as The Watcher. He doesn't just kill. He keeps his victims alive in the digital world, updating their social media accounts long after they're gone-responding to messages, posting photos, making their families believe they're still out there. But Sarah isn't fooled. She knows he's real. And she's running out of time to stop him. Then there's Emily Monroe-the girl who got away. The only one who has ever survived him. She was just nineteen when she escaped his grasp, bloodied and broken, running barefoot through the streets in the dead of night. But she doesn't remember everything. And she doesn't want to. For years, she's buried the trauma, drowning it in alcohol and pretending the past is behind her. But when a new girl disappears-one who eerily resembles Emily at that age-her carefully constructed world begins to crack. Sarah and Emily have never met, but their paths are about to collide. Because The Watcher is evolving. He's adapting. And he's been watching all along. As Sarah pieces together decades of disappearances and Emily unearths long-buried memories, the truth slowly emerges. This isn't just another case. This is a game. And The Watcher is always one step ahead. Because in his mind, the hunt is never over. And the prettiest ones always cry the most.

Haunted
Raven Zheng is definitely not crazy. At least - that's what she tells herself. It's hard to believe that when no one else can see what you see. You see, Raven can see the dead. Ghosts, if you will. They're people who died, just looking for closure and a way to move on from this life. When Raven meets Cade Woods, she's surprised to find a person who understand what she's going through, at least a little bit. He doesn't see the dead, per se, but he's seen enough death in his life to see her point of view. And then the first body is found. Soon enough, Raven is catapulted into Cade's world. There seems to be a serial killer in town, one who has connections to Cade and his father that makes him a suspect in the murders, and Raven has no way to know whether or not he can be trusted at all, given his past and his suspicious parentage. But as the body count climbs, Raven and Cade realize that they might be the only ones with the knowledge to stop the killer, even if they have to embrace their past to do it.Complete

For passing the test, she is heir to the Hades throne, and must choose whether or not to take her rightful place. Torn, she returns to everday life. But messing with her life, yet again, is an emerging dark power. Adalia must rise once more to the challenge, against the very thing that could threaten her future.
