Killing Nightmares

It's been four years since the Killing Game turned Reis and Edgar's lives upside-down. Believing the past to be behind them, they've tried to move on with their lives. Edgar has returned to freelance computer programming, while Reis is training to become a Bureau agent. Emily is about to marry, and Reis's biggest concern is what to wear to the wedding as they navigate the rocky seas of their gender identity.

The peace they won is soon cast into doubt as Tony Anvas is released from prison. Shortly after, Edgar and Reis are thrust into a conspiracy more deadly and dangerous than the Killing Game when Anvas stages a coup d'etat, forcibly severing the Twin City-States in a bloody and brutal attack.

It's once again up to Reis and Edgar to save the day, but Edgar is still suffering the after-effects of trauma and Reis is trying to determine whether to go ahead with medical transition. Can they outwit Anvas's machinations once again and emerge whole—and if so, what will it cost them?
