This is an anthology edition of the Kinsmen Universe, which includes Silent Blade and Silver Shark, plus a new short story. Family is everything. Talent is power. And revenge is sweet. In a distant, future world Kinsmen - small powerful groups of genetically and technologically advanced families - control vast financial empires. They are their own country, their own rulers, and their only limits are other Kinsmen. The struggle for power is a bloody, full-contact sport: in business, on the battlefield...and sometimes in the bedroom.

Catalina Baylor is looking forward to wearing her maid of honor dress and watching her older sister walk down the aisle. Then the wedding planner gets escorted off the premises, the bride’s priceless tiara disappears, and Rogan's extensive family overruns his mother’s home. Someone is cheating, someone is lying, and someone is plotting murder. To make this wedding happen, Catalina will have to do the thing she fears most: use her magic. But she’s a Baylor, and there’s nothing she wouldn't do for her sister's happiness.

Auf den ersten Blick scheint Dina Demille eine ganze normale Frau zu sein. Die Inhaberin eines malerischen viktorianischen Gasthauses in einer Kleinstadt in Texas besitzt einen Shih-Tzu namens Beast und ist die perfekte Nachbarin. Aber Dina ist ... anders: Ihr Besen ist eine tödliche Waffe und ihr Gasthof, der als Unterkunft für außerirdische Besucher konzipiert ist, ist magisch und kann denken.

Hugh d'Ambray, Preceptor of the Iron Dogs, Warlord of the Builder of Towers, served only one man. Now his immortal, nearly omnipotent master has cast him aside. Hugh is a shadow of the warrior he was, but when he learns that the Iron Dogs, soldiers who would follow him anywhere, are being hunted down and murdered, he must make a choice: to fade away or to be the leader he was born to be. Hugh knows he must carve a new place for himself and his people, but they have no money, no shelter, and no food, and the necromancers are coming. Fast.

Fall under the intoxicating spell of their hex appeal…In the magical world that lies hidden beneath our own, witches and conjurers play deadly games. They know just the right spell to kill a man with one kiss—or raise him back again. And they’re not afraid to exact sweet revenge on those who dare to cross them. But what if you’re the unlucky soul who falls victim to a conjurer’s curse? And if you had the power to cast a magic spell of your own, would you use it?

When magic is up, electricity dies, cars stall, and skyscrapers tumble; when it's down, phones and guns work, and defensive spells can't protect your house from the creatures who stalk the streets. Equally dangerous are the competing factions of The Pack - a highly organized and military clan who governs Atlanta's were-bears, -wolves, and -hyenas - versus the Masters of the Dead, power and knowledge-hungry necromancers whose minds control hordes of blood-crazed vampires.

Scarred, solitary Derek Gaunt has separated from his Pack and is truly a lone wolf. With no family, he answers to no one but is fiercely loyal to a chosen few. So when several of those close to him are murdered, he'll stop at nothing to hunt their killer through the magic-drenched streets of Atlanta.

A mercenary in magic-torn Atlanta who cleans up after magic gone wrong, Kate Daniels has seen it all - and some things she couldn't even have imagined. Normally, waves of paranormal energy ebb and flow like an ocean current. But once every seven years, a paranormal flare comes and brings magic like a tidal wave. Now Kate faces problems on a much bigger scale: a divine one.

Dina DeMille may run the nicest Bed and Breakfast in Red Deer, Texas, but she caters to a very particular kind of guest...the kind that no one on Earth is supposed to know about. Guests like a former intergalactic tyrant with an impressive bounty on her head, the Lord Marshal of a powerful vampire clan, and a displaced-and-superhot werewolf; so don't stand too close, or you may be collateral damage.

When magic strikes and Atlanta goes to pieces, it's a job for Kate Daniels...Drafted into working for the Order of Merciful Aid, mercenary Kate Daniels has more paranormal problems than she knows what to do with these days. And in Atlanta, where magic comes and goes like the tide, that's saying a lot. But when Kate's werewolf friend Derek is discovered nearly dead, she must confront her greatest challenge yet.

Kate Daniels cleans up the paranormal problems no one else wants to deal with - especially if they involve Atlanta's shapeshifting community. And now there's a new player in town - a foe that may be too much for even Kate and Curran, the Lord of the Beasts, to handle. Because this time, Kate will be taking on family.

Willkommen bei Haus Baylor! Drei Jahre sind vergangen, seit der Grundstein für Haus Baylor gelegt wurde. Mittlerweile ist es Catalinas Job, die Familienehre (der Dank für erfolgreiche Trainingseinheiten geht dabei an Mrs Rogan!) zu verteidigen. Noch immer fällt es ihr schwer, ihre ganz besondere Magie einzusetzen. Doch da werden Mutter und Schwester einer Freundin ermordet. Catalina beginnt auf eigene Faust zu ermitteln, um die abscheuliche Tat aufzuklären. Doch finstere Mächte sind am Werk. Und Alessandra Sagredo - gefährlich, unberechenbar und Catalinas einstiger Schwarm - scheint Teil dessen zu sein.

Save the date! Nevada Frida Baylor und Connor Anders Rogan laden Dich sehr herzlich zu ihrer Hochzeit ein. Beschwörungen, Wettermanipulation und andere magische Aktivitäten sind strengstens untersagt! Nevadas kleine Schwester Catalina kann es kaum erwarten, ihr Brautjungfernkleid vorzuführen... und zuschauen, wie Nevada vor den Altar tritt. Als jedoch der Weddingplaner gewaltsam vom Gelände entfernt werden muss, die unbezahlbare Tiara der Braut spurlos verschwindet und dann auch noch Rogans exzessive Familie über das Haus herfällt, scheint das junge Glück in großer Gefahr.

Wenn Vertrauen zur Feuerprobe wird. In einer Welt, in der Magie alles bedeutet - Reichtum, Macht und Ansehen. Eine Welt, in der Familiendynastien das Schicksal der Menschen bestimmen, Kriege führen und Politik beeinflussen. Seit dem Tod ihres Vaters ist Nevada Baylor die Hauptverdienerin in ihrer Familie. Als Privatdetektivin übernimmt sie jeden Fall, um alle über Wasser zu halten - sie lässt sich sogar auf einen Auftrag ein, der sie in Lebensgefahr bringt. Nevada soll einen mächtigen Feuermagier dingfest machen, als ihr Weg den von Connor "Mad" Rogan kreuzt.

Wenn die Welt in Flammen steht... Es fällt Nevada Baylor schwer, sich zu entscheiden: Ist es tatsächlich härter, ihre Talente als Wahrheitssucherin zu schärfen oder mit der frisch erblühten Beziehung zu Mad Rogan zu jonglieren? Harte Entscheidung! Denn bald schon wird Nevada eine wichtige Akteurin auf der magischen Bühne sein, während Rogan ihr dabei hilft, all die Gefahren zu umschiffen, die es mit sich bringt, ein eigenes Haus zu gründen. Doch all das ist ein Kinderspiel verglichen mit all den Gefühlen füreinander, die die beiden zu kontrollieren versuchen.

Wie Feuer und Eis Ihre außergewöhnliche magische Fähigkeit - zu erkennen, wann jemand lügt - kommt Nevada Baylor in ihrem Job als Privatdetektivin gerade recht. Zusammen mit ihrem Fleiß und ihrer Beharrlichkeit hat sie es geschafft, ihre (vielleicht ein bisschen exzentrische) Familie mit ihrer Detektei über Wasser zu halten. Aber in ihrem neuen Fall muss sich Nevada abermals gegen die finsteren Mächte stellen, die Houston bereits einmal zerstören wollten.

In a world where magic is the key to power and wealth, Catalina Baylor is a prime, the highest rank of magic user, and the head of her house. Catalina has always been afraid to use her unique powers, but when her friend’s mother and sister are murdered, Catalina risks her reputation and safety to unravel the mystery. But behind the scenes, powerful forces are at work, and one of them is Alessandro Sagredo, the Italian prime who was once Catalina’s teenage crush.
