AUTHOR’S
NOTE
This book takes place
after the events of Undead and
Undermined. Probably. Betsy’s pretty sure. “Look, shit’s
going down, all right? What am I, a walking, talking table of
contents? I’ve gotta raise the dead and maybe shoot my sister
between her baby blues. Stuff’s happening, okay?”
For Michael Wyndham’s
backstory, see Secrets, vol. 6, “Love’s
Prisoner,” and Secrets, vol. 8,
“Jared’s Wolf.”
For Derik’s
backstory, see Derik’s
Bane.
For Boo Miller and
Eddie Batley’s backstories, see “The Incredible Misadventures of
Boo and the Boy Blunder,” from Kick
Ass.
Also, the yuck-o jobs
Eddie mulls over came from “Ten of the World’s Worst Jobs,”

blessings.
