    Summary

    Phil Callahan has made a large variety of strange arrests in his time working as a cop for Hawkins, Indiana. Daylight skinny-dippers; a small group of old ladies who’d attempted to rob the corner shop with their umbrellas, a guy who’d stolen a total of eighteen gnomes from his suburban neighborhood.

    But pulling over Max Mayfield driving her brother’s Camaro at the ripe age of thirteen was pretty insane. Sure, kids will be kids and kids will be crazy. Until Steve Harrington crawled out of the backseat, clutched his knees and horror-movie hurled blood all over his boots and shit got crazier.

    That took it from a minor concern to oh, fuck. Callahan has to take this kid to a hospital.

    Summary

    But even two truths and a lie is better than the much more average, tepid small talk that for some reason always includes the dreaded question about siblings. Max can’t fathom it. She’s actually never cared if someone has siblings.

    In her first two classes, she just says no. In her third class, for some reason, the urge to be honest overtakes her and she impulsively admits to a dead brother, then immediately regrets that when she gets the automatic chorus of sympathetic coos. She can’t exactly be like, oh, don’t worry, he was actually evil and I’ve come to accept that it was absolutely vital that he bite it.

    Summary

    The heirs to the Houses have been summoned to compete for the hand of God's only daughter, with the promise of Lyctorhood thrown in the mix. Harrow's only goal is to preserve her House, which she plans to do with or without Gideon Ptolemaia's hand in marriage. But the Princess — and the other postulants — aren't what she expected.

    AKA: Harrow competes in a contest to marry Gideon, but mostly makes friends she doesn't want, patches her relationship with her brother cavalier Ortus, and tries to figure out why looking at Gideon gives her migraines.

    Summary

    Gideon switched gears from confused to annoyed. “Excuse you, but I didn’t get my ass kicked up and down the steps of Drearburh for eighteen years just to have the world’s tiniest asshat give me lip about it.”

    The girl stood now, drawing herself up to her full height, and the exhausted circles around her eyes made her face gaunt and skull-like. Gideon’s palms prickled when she spoke, intoning in a way that reminded her, terrifyingly, of Crux.

    “I am the Reverend Daughter Harrowhark Nonagesimus, and I know the face of each one of my supplicants. If someone as feckless as you, Gideon Nav, were among my congregation, then I would have tossed you out the airlock when I first laid eyes on you.”

    [Gideon and Harrow wake up back in their own bodies but both of them are missing large parts of their memory. Camilla tries not to kill everyone.]
