The world isn't the same as it was yesterday. In fact, Viv is no longer sure that she is the same as she was yesterday. She can do something she never knew was possible—and Luca tried to kill her, just like Jasper said he would if she let him get too close. At the teahouse, it's business as usual, however: tentacles in the top floor, an invasion of not-quite-real-but-nevertheless-terrifying spiders . . . and a new murderer to catch, of course. Someone is trying to make sure a Greek-Australian couple never makes it to the altar, and it's not just perfume they're sneaking into the bride's room.

I'm not supposed to push through the boundaries of reality without supervision. I'm definitely not meant to drag a cop Between with me. But stuff happens, you know? Hi. I'm Pet. Well, not Pet, exactly. I am a pet. Nothing too hard; I just cook and clean for the Behindkind who took over my house. Easy. But now one of my owners has gone missing. He's fae, so it shouldn't worry me, but if there's something out there that can kidnap fae, I don't wanna meet it. Good thing I've got another two owners and a spare cop up my sleeve....

I'll give you a hint: it's not the vampire, and it's sure as heck not the fae.

There's a body beneath the skip bins. Fae on the forklift. A vampire in the manager's office. And there's definitely something skeevy going on in the locker rooms. Hi. I'm Pet. Well, not exactly Pet. I am a pet. I was meant to stay out of it, but somebody's gotta do something when humans are being killed by Behindkind creatures.

Things like that tend to draw the attention of the local police, and when you're squatting in your parents' old house until you can afford to buy it, another thing you can't afford is the attention of the cops.

When Agatha walks in on the trio of women in the middle of a blazing row, her detective instincts start 'twitching'. And when one of the birdwatchers is found dead, she can't resist investigating.

As an introvert growing up in Lakehurst, NJ, the tragic loss of a close friend forced me to understand how consequence and conscience are akin to the Roman god Janus—both sides of the same coin. 1972 became the genesis of my father’s immersion into the macabre Grace Cohen case, a troubled young girl who wrestled with her inner demons and vanished from Horicon Lake. Her vexing disappearance thrust the rural town famous for the Hindenburg disaster into a maze of deadly nuance, rendering it ground zero for the mesmerizing Zodiac Killer case.

Instead, Viv finds herself following Jasper into a strange new world where a murderous madman has been incarcerated in a secret floor at the old Kew Asylum that may or may not exist in the human world as she knows it.

J.R.R. Tolkien beschrieb das Zweite Zeitalter von Mittelerde als ein "dunkles Zeitalter, von dem nicht viel erzählt wird...". Lange mussten sich die Leserinnen und Leser mit den Hinweisen auf dieses Zeitalter begnügen, die in Der Herr der Ringe und dessen Anhängen zu finden waren. Erst als Christopher Tolkien "Das Silmarillion" und "Nachrichten aus Mittelerde" herausgab, weitete sich der Blick auf diese Epoche: Es ist die dramatische Geschichte vom Aufstieg und Fall des Inselreichs Númenor, dem Schmieden der Ringe der Macht, dem Erstarken Saurons sowie dem letzten Bündnis von Elben und Menschen.
