Book Description
Faye Grimm thought there was no such thing as Faeries, and nightmares were nothing more than bad dreams. Until the Fey stole her away and she discovered her last name was more than just a coincidence. Eight years later, she and her family are still trying to come to terms with the terrifying world that has invaded their lives—a world that now threatens to claim her younger sisters, Ember and Evadne. Faye has devised a reckless plan to save her sisters from her fate, but before she can carry it out the unthinkable happens—she is kidnapped by a group of mere humans. In retaliation, Ember and Evadne are dragged into the dark and dangerous Faerie Realm where they can only trust each other as an unstoppable, inherited power blooms within them. Caught between Summer and Winter Courts in an age-old struggle for power and control, the girls fight to keep hold of who they are. Both courts believe that Ember and Evadne are the twins from an ancient prophecy, but no one can see the darker hand pulling the strings beneath it all. A figure entangling them in secrets, and seeking to unveil an even greater evil with the girls' blood. Desperate to return to the Realm to help her sisters, Faye is doing everything she can to escape her kidnapper Ronan, despite the mind numbing drugs forced into her system every day. As she struggles to outwit Jeremiah, the true mastermind behind her kidnapping, the truth about why she was taken slowly begins to emerge. As the net of deception tightens around her, Faye must decide who she can trust and what to believe. Once she chooses her path, there will be no turning back. Fate and shadowy forces beyond Jeremiah's madness push her toward the dark truth; buried within the bones of the past lurks a danger with the power to unravel the present.

Once Upon a Crime
Author: P. J. Brackston
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1605988138
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 173
Book Description
From New York Times bestselling author P. J. Brackston comes the prequel to Gretel and the Case of the Missing Frog Prints, the new novel in the rollicking series featuring Gretel, all grown up and working as a private investigator in 18th century Bavaria. Gretel (yes, that Gretel) is now 35, very large, still living with her brother Hans, and working as a private investigator. The small, sleepy town of Gesternstadt is shaken to its pretty foundations when the workshop of the local cart maker is burnt to the ground, and a body is discovered in the ashes. It is Gretel who notices that the cadaver is missing a finger. At first she does not see this as significant, as her mind is fully focused on a new case. Not that she wouldn’t far rather be investigating an intriguing murder, but her client is willing to pay over the odds, so she must content herself with trying to trace three missing cats. It is not until she is further into her investigations that she realizes the two events are inextricably and dangerously connected, and that the mystery of the missing cats will lead her into perilous situations and frightening company. Very soon Gretel finds herself accused of kidnapping Princess Charlotte, twice locked up in the cells at the Summer Schloss, repelling the advances of an amorous troll, strapped to a rack in Herr Schmerz’s torture chamber, and fleeing a murder charge. With dubious help from her brother (whose scant wits are habitually addled by drink), she must prove her innocence, solve the puzzle of the unidentified corpse, and find the stolen cats before they meet a grisly end.

Book Description
Through its six-season run, television's Grimm used the extraordinary to illuminate the complexity of the ordinary.

This collection of new essays explores Grimm's critique of identity and justice in the modern world contexts of race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, environmentalism, genre and heroism, with a focus on the show's disruptive adaptation of fairy tales and reinterpretation of the police procedural in a fantasy landscape.
