Introduction

REUNION

By Christopher Farnsworth

Bestselling Author of BLOOD OATH and THE PRESIDENT’S VAMPIRE

A girl detective. A boy genius. A warrior princess. A young magician. Four young people with extraordinary gifts.

For years, they solved mysteries, caught crooks, and slayed monsters. They were secret heroes, keeping an idyllic small town in the middle of America safe from the things that lurked in the dark.

Then, the year of their high school graduation, the darkness came for them.

During what the media called “New Year’s Evil,” a demonic force rose to turn their hometown into a literal Hell on Earth.

They gathered to stop it. They fought. And they won.

The rest of the world never discovered the truth behind the disaster. For 20 years, the four tried living like normal people.

Now their past is coming back to haunt them.

The darkness is gathering once more. They’re summoned back to their hometown to face it, along with everything else they left behind. Whether they want to or not, they’ll have to be heroes again.

THE GIRL DETECTIVE

Carrie Keene — born with an eidetic memory, Carrie has been fighting crime since grade school, graduating from stolen bikes to federal felonies. But when she finds the sign of a murderous cult at a crime scene, she knows that she has to return home and re-open the case that everyone else would just as soon forget.

THE BOY GENIUS

Danny Sharp — the insanely smart heir to a high-tech fortune, Danny spent his childhood building jetpacks and robots, catching mad scientists and industrial spies. After losing his start-up in a corporate takeover, Danny returns to face the same evil that killed his father, and now waits for him.

THE WARRIOR PRINCESS

Alana Bright — born to a refugee from a mystical world, Alana always knew she was different. She carried a magic sword and killed the monsters that came out at night, keeping the daylight world safe. Once the final battle was over, she was ready to be normal. Her days are spent with her daughter, and she’s happy. But an old evil won’t let her walk away — and she will have to pick up her sword again to protect the people she loves most.

THE YOUNG MAGICIAN

Eric Weiss — a misfit plagued by disturbing visions, Eric learned early that all the demons and horrors he saw were real. This generation’s Merlin, Eric lost his powers two decades ago and has been doing card tricks in Vegas ever since. When his abilities return, he knows that his nemesis is alive again, too. Only this time, he’s not sure he wants to sacrifice himself for the greater good.

Together, they will have to finish what they started. Last time, they saved the world. This time, they’ll have to do something much harder.

They’ll have to save each other.
