An ex-con with his own secrets, Logan Garcia’s life plan is to drink himself into oblivion. Until the shockwave hits—shattering the world as he knows it.

Dakota knows of a safe place to ride out the coming chaos—a bunker in the Everglades. In the moments before the deadly fallout descends, she offers Logan a deal.

She’ll bring him along if he helps her. But she’s not escaping the burning, radioactive ruins of Miami—not without her sister.

Soon after they discover that an evil spirit, Hellferata, wants them dead. Fearful Lorns want to expel the youngsters from their tree, which would be a death sentence since monsters roam the land at night.
Will their ingenuity, cunning, and courage help them escape, or will Hellferata mete out her wrath before they can escape?

The Pope is pregnant. Seriously!
In the year of Satan, 2066, the structure of the physical world is cracking. Inexplicable paranormal forces are interfering with humanity. The Trinity Investigation Organization, or TIO—a paranormal detective society—is the last protection against the demons, evil spirits, fanatical criminals, and sadists who are trying to destroy the world.
The 92-year-old Pope is pregnant. Allegedly, he hasn’t undergone any medical procedures, but he carries a human fetus in his abdomen. Is this a case of self-cloning, or is it a mutation? Is this an immaculate conception, or is it Satan’s work?
Claire, Travis, and Prescott, the members of the Capuchin Trinity Team of TIO, are hired by the Pope to uncover the truth about this unusual conception and resolve the mystery of whether the Pope is carrying the new Messiah or the Antichrist, and who did it.

As she struggles to adapt to life as one of the undead, and come to terms with her unnatural thirst and unexpected hungers, a new threat arises – part terrifying myth, part half-forgotten legend.
This threat jeopardizes the precarious ceasefire between warring vampire factions, and puts everything she loves – her city, her family, her friends – in danger. Can Mina protect them from the darkness that’s descending, and can she save herself?
