Summary
Hancock takes a leave of absence. Nora never wakes up.
After more than 200 years on ice, the sole survivor of Vault 111 is freed by the Commonwealth’s best behaved trio of ne’er-do-wells and finds herself stranded in this dead, alien world. Nothing is as it once was. Nobody is who they should be. Her life, her home, and her future were destroyed when the bombs fell, and now she’s faced with uncomfortable questions about her new reality. Why is she the only survivor? Who can she actually trust?
Being the mayor has jaded Hancock to the realities of his world. On an extended treasure hunt with Bobbi No-Nose and Mel, they dive into the mysterious Vault 111 and find a different sort of pre-war relic than they were anticipating. It seems as though Nora’s fate is tangled with that of Hancock’s newfound enemies. Now he has to ask himself if this is a fight he can afford to involve himself in - and exactly how far he is willing to go.

Summary
He hadn't anticipated any of this — how could he? It was supposed to be a fucking recon mission, maybe a chance to trade blows with the Institute if he was lucky, not a torturous deep-dive into his traumatic past.
And now this vaultie...fuck. There's a complication he really didn't need. She's shaken something loose beneath his mask, an instinct he hasn't felt in a very long time. Something fierce and covetous, born of a bone-deep need to comfort and protect.
That Deacon will do whatever he can to help her is a foregone conclusion, he realizes. The only question remaining is how far he's willing to go to do it.
A survivor and a wanderer, from worlds as alike as they are different, collide. The wasteland will never be the same, and neither will Deacon.

Summary
Between her military service and her complex family life, Elle Douglas found herself almost uniquely qualified to survive in The Commonwealth’s wasteland - at least as far as Vault 111 residents went. Now, almost a full year after rising from cryogenic stasis and the horror that befell her young family as a result of the war, Elle finds herself on the verge of breaching The Institute and changing her entire life yet again.
The Brotherhood of Steel is beginning to disintegrate around her. As a result, Elle is forced to make choices she never thought she'd make, pursue opportunities she never thought she'd have, and maybe even fall in love with a man who she never thought she would.

Summary
A month after the events of The Raider and The Bear, Porter Gage and the Overboss are settling into their slightly skewed version of domestic bliss. But even as Gage falls into the easy routine of service and sex; the violent act that his Overboss has asked him to support (and the upheaval of Nuka World that will result from it), hangs over him. As he struggles to totally understand his feelings for the mascot-wearing woman that turned his life upside down, her past traumas and fears find a new avenue with which to haunt them both.

Summary
Porter Gage, despite feeling totally alienated from the other Raiders at Nuka World, spending his days and nights alone with his own thoughts, still wants what's best for the place. That's why when he has the opportunity to replace Overboss Colter with a new Overboss, he jumps at it; gambling everything he's built so far on the quiet, mysterious, bearheaded woman who easily defeats The Gauntlet.
The new Overboss is already working out better than Gage's wildest fantasies when it comes to Nuka World itself. Then, as he learns more about her, he comes up with a few new fantasies he'd like to see come true.
