Royal envoys Calarian and Benji embark on a quest in the alpine duchy of Tournel. Things go rapidly downhill when the duke plummets to his death from the tower wall. Whoops—that's going to be hard to explain. And it’s not as though they can just grab the nearest human and make him the new duke. Or can they? Enter one Lars Melker, a slightly gullible cowherd built entirely of muscles and sunshine, who happily accepts their word when they tell him he’s the duke now.Soon Calarian and Benji are knee deep in teaching Lars how to fake it until he makes it. They're also dealing with mountain trolls, a monster, a missing cow, and, most shocking of all, a growing realisation that their elves-with-benefits arrangement might be turning into something with feelings. Add in their mutual attraction to Lars, and suddenly the hills are alive with the sound of emotionally compromised collectivist anarchist elves.Also, what’s the deal with those leather shorts?
In a castle adorned with gems, coated in gold, and dusted with luxury, the youngest of the Constantine Family will be introduced to the elite of New York. But the party isn’t all glamor. Villains lurk in dark corners, evil deals are struck, and starcrossed loves are born.

Puede que a sus dieciocho años Trinity Marrow se esté quedando ciega, pero es capaz de ver fantasmas y espíritus y comunicarse con ellos. Su extraordinario don forma parte de un secreto tan peligroso que Trinity lleva años escondiéndose en un aislado complejo fuertemente vigilado por Guardianes, gárgolas cambiaformas que protegen a la humanidad de los demonios. Si los demonios descubren la verdad sobre Trinity, la devorarán, literalmente, para aumentar sus poderes. Cuando llegan Guardianes de otro clan con la alarmante noticia de que algo está matando tanto a demonios como a Guardianes, el seguro mundo de Trinity se hace añicos.

Zayne guarda secretos que pondrán el mundo de Trinity del revés una vez más, pero se ven obligados a trabajar juntos cuando los demonios irrumpen en el recinto y el secreto de Trinity sale a la luz. Para salvar a su familia, y tal vez al mundo, Trinity tendrá que confiar en Zayne.
