Maeve Castillo Won’t Tell

The night her co-star died, Maeve Castillo was photographed with blood on her hands—and she’s never revealed why. When a tabloid writer begins releasing exposés about her mysteriously canceled TV show, Maeve fears everyone will find out what happened that night.

To buy time and divert attention, she reunites with Gemma Giselle, her on-screen lover and estranged best friend. As the two stage public appearances to stir up the rumor mill with their unconfirmed romance, Maeve finds out Gemma is hiding something. Everyone knows Maeve has secrets, but what’s the seemingly-perfect Gemma hiding?

The Undoing of Ruby Reyes

Vivian Cruz tries to forget she grew up in a town where dead people emerge from the ground with supernatural abilities. Ever since the government demolished and poured concrete over her hometown, Undones—the term for the resurrected—either live hidden in plain sight, or are stowed away in a lab.

When a murderer starts killing suspected Undones, Audrey Altadonna, the Undone with superhuman speed, comes back into Vivian’s life with news: their childhood friend, Ruby Reyes, didn’t die thirteen years ago. She became an Undone, and she’s next on the killer’s list. This leads Vivian and Audrey on a roadtrip to find—and possibly save—the friend they thought they had lost forever.
