Spooky silliness reigns in Catherine Doyle's brand new series as Ted and Frankie team up to save their hotel from a ghostly duke and his restless spirits. Featuring hilarious illustrations from Rachael Dean. Ted McKenley would rather live anywhere than with Frankie "spawn-of-the-devil" Stark. And Frankie wouldn't go near a coward like Ted. Too bad - their parents just got married and blew their savings turning a creepy old mansion into a boutique hotel. At least it's big enough for the stepsiblings to stay far apart. But when Ted encounters a disappearing housekeeper and Frankie runs into a screaming suit of armour, their feud becomes the least of their problems. With cranky spirits on the loose, Ted and Frankie reluctantly team up to stop the devious Duke of Snoring from turning their new home into haunted rubble. The battle for the hotel has begun!

Ve městě Fantome je magie stínu vzácná a smrtící. Ovládají ji jen zloději a vrazi, kteří pod záštitou bratrstva Plášťů a Dýk soupeří o moc. Když záhadný útočník zavraždí sedmnáctileté Seraphine matku, najde úkryt u Plášťů. Před vůdcem Dýk ji však nic neuchrání, zvláště když přikáže Ransomovi, svému dědici, aby ji zabil. Přestože měli být nepřátelé, Ransom a Sera zjišťují, že je spojuje víc než jen magie. Uprostřed bojů o moc se musí rozhodnout: Pomsta, nebo odpuštění? Polibek, nebo smrt? Dýka, nebo plamen?

Törd meg a jeget, és az átok is megtörik! Öld meg az egyik ikret, hogy élhessen a másik! Az ikerkirálynők, Wren és Rose fejére végre felkerült a korona, de nem mindenki nézi jó szemmel, hogy boszorkányok ülnek Eana trónján. A józan, megfontolt Rose királynői körutat tervez, hogy elnyerje az alattvalók bizalmát az egész királyságban, Wren azonban hevesen ellenzi a tervet. Hogy utazgathatnának Eanában, amikor a nagyanyjuk, Banba Gevrában raboskodik? A forrófejű Wren titokban hajóra száll, és a jeges észak felé veszi az irányt, ahol Alarik király veszélyes mágikus alkut ajánl Banba szabadságáért cserébe. Wren kétségbeesetten beleegyezik, ám a varázslatának nem várt következményei lesznek... Eközben Rose körútját egy titokzatos idegen zavarja meg, aki azt állítja, hogy a rég elveszett Napcsókolta Királyságból érkezett. A sors szálai délre, az ősi Amarach-tornyokba szólítják Rose-t, ahol csak Eana látói tudják, miért mozgolódik a szokásosnál is jobban a Nyughatatlan Homok - és miért lehet Shen Lo a kulcs a megoldáshoz. Az Anadawnban azonban lázadás készülődik. És Eanának csak akkor van esélye a békére, ha a két testvér újra összefog, és meggyőzik a népüket, hogy a régi rendet eltörölve valami újat építsenek ki.
