Lira
Lira thinks a girl like her can’t change the world. In the far future, Lira faces a new world order very different from what we have today. A plague has decimated the human population, and their only hope of surviving is to strike a deal with the vampires. Humans must donate to the blood banks in exchange for the cure found only in the vampires’ blood. To fast-track the return to civilization, a caste system was imposed, putting Lira in one of the lowest and poorest rungs of society. Her only hope of rising above her station is to get into the exclusive Imperial Academy. The good news: Lira’s acceptance letter arrived in the mail today. The bad news: Human students must study alongside vampires hungry for blood drawn directly from the vein. And for some strange reason, they all want Lira’s blood—including Nicholas, the mysterious vampire prince. By going to the academy, Lira is already changing the world. She just doesn’t know it yet.

The Uneasy Silence
The Australian Government is facing a national embarrassment when two ASIS (Australian Secret Intelligence Service) agents have gone missing on the Mornington Peninsula along with top secret files, mobile telephones, and their laptops. The director of ASIS decides to sidestep accountability by using the National Missing Persons (NMPCC) arm of the AFP (Australian Federal Police), and tasks the team of operation Reveles to work covertly to ensure that this matter never leaks out to the local population in the town of Sorrento nor become a feeding frenzy for the Australian Media. AFP Lead Detective Emir ‘Eddy’ Muravic under the supervision of his boss AFP Inspector Phil Morris soon discovers that the chic town of Sorrento is not just full of party goers, holiday makers, sea, and tree changers and ‘A Listers’ but an underbelly which could threaten his own family, and childhood visions of the Mornington Peninsula.
