Summary
Ivan has always been interested in psychology; countless nights were spent doing all of his own research--websites, expensive books from the internet--you name it, so he decided to major in psychology in college to put all of it to some use. Despite all of this, Ivan can't seem to save himself from his own mentality. However, when he's presented with an opportunity to get closer to Till through his blinding crush on Mizi, he quickly learns two things.
1. Manipulating people, no matter how pure your intentions, is always wrong.
2. He may be more lovable than he has always believed. -

Summary
Jax is annoyed. He's always annoyed, but this time is special for one obnoxiously red reason.
His new "best friend" won't leave him be, and he's going to rip Caine a new one once he's back.
So much for a birthday present.

Summary
Despite himself, Charles was mesmerized by this strange version of Edwin Payne that had something of Hellfire to him. And he was so very close … “His eyes are decidedly less honest than yours. Intriguing... Never pegged Charles Rowland for a liar.”
“Careful, luv.” The voice was a sing-song drawl, accompanied by the same scraping sound drawing ever closer. “You know I get jealous.” There, lit faintly by moonlight, was Charles Rowland – face pale, grin wide and eyes cast in shadows, twirling a cricket bat that had been studded with nails glinting wickedly like iron stars. “What you think, Win? I say there can only be one.”A string of grave robbings leads the Dead Boy Detectives to stumble into a ritual, summoning versions of themselves, who have experienced a very different afterlife. Not only is there a pack of hellhounds on their heels, they also won’t stop at chaos nor bloodshed to carve out their place in the world – and remove their superfluous doppelgangers in the process.
As Crystal desperately tries to master her powers and keep the fabric of reality from unraveling, the boys need to stop their nefarious doubles. To make matters infinitely more confusing, the two delinquents are madly in love... -

Summary
"Right on time, Charles," Edwin calls as he phases in through their office door. "It seems that we have a new client. We were just about to—"
Charles freezes.
"As I was saying," Charles' father coughs, sat across from Edwin with his back to the door, "my name is Richard Rowland, and I believe I have been murdered."
—
Or: Charles' father dies on a Sunday. On Monday, he arrives at the doorstep of the Dead Boy Detective Agency.

Summary
There was snow left on the ground, but you wouldn’t have known it from the temperature. St. Hilarion’s Januaries could be deceptive like that. It was a quiet sort of cold, no terrible storm or ice crunching underfoot, but just as liable to kill you.
Charles would know. After all, he was dying.
***
In one world, Charles dies slowly in the attic of St. Hilarion's, with only the ghost of yet another wronged child for company.
In another, he runs into the woods - and he meets a monster who is not, as it turns out, a monster after all.
