A birodalom ismét sötét idők elé néz: nemrég egy titokzatos férfi érkezett a városba, és a Bálnavadászok élére állt, méghozzá olyan képességek birtokában, melyeknek a létezése már éppen kezdett feledésbe merülni. Emily és Corvo életre-halálra folyó hajszába veti magát: ha nem lebbentik fel a fátylat rejtélyes ellenségükről, akkor minden igyekezetük dacára bekövetkezik az elkerülhetetlen pusztulás.

Adam Christopher - Made ​to Kill
Raymond ​Electromatic is good at his job, as good as he ever was at being a true Private Investigator, the lone employee of the Electromatic Detective Agency--except for Ada, office gal and super-computer, the constant voice in Ray's inner ear. Ray might have taken up a new line of work, but money is money, after all, and he was programmed to make a profit. Besides, with his twenty-four-hour memory-tape limits, he sure can keep a secret. When a familiar-looking woman arrives at the agency wanting to hire Ray to find a missing movie star, he's inclined to tell her to take a hike. But she had the cold hard cash, a demand for total anonymity, and tendency to vanish on her own. Plunged into a glittering world of fame, fortune, and secrecy, Ray uncovers a sinister plot that goes much deeper than the silver screen--and this robot is at the wrong place, at the wrong time. Made to Kill is the thrilling new speculative noir from novelist and comic writer Adam Christopher.

Adam Christopher - A ​sötétség fejedelme
1984. ​december, Hawkins. Jim Hopper rendőrfőnök egyetlen vágya egy csendes karácsonyeste eltöltése Tizivel, de örökbe fogadott lánya keresztülhúzza számítását. A lány egy New York feliratú kartondobozt húz elő a pincéből, és záporozni kezdenek az igazán fogós kérdések. Miért hagyta el Hopper Hawkinst? Miért tért vissza? És miért nem beszél sohasem New Yorkról? Bár Hopper inkább nézne szembe egy falkányi demogorgonnal, mint a saját múltjával, nem tehet mást: el kell mesélnie annak a mindent megváltoztató pár hónapnak a történetét. A Vietnamot megjárt fiatal, kisgyerekes családapa, Jim Hopper New Yorkban kezd új életet, ám a sosem alvó város sikátorai legalább annyira veszélyesek, mint a vietnami dzsungel. 1977 forró nyarán bizarr módon megcsonkított hullák lepik el az újdonsült gyilkossági nyomozó Hopper körzetét, és szövetségi ügynökök szállják meg a rendőrséget. A férfinak nincs más választása, mint a maga kezébe venni az ügyet. A gyilkost konok elszántsággal üldöző Hopper egy őrült banda és egy titokzatos parapszichológiai kísérlet után kutatva merül mélyre a sosem látott hőhullámtól szenvedő New York mocskában, és a többnapos áramszünet miatt sötétbe borult városban először néz szembe a gonosz valódi arcával.
