Summary
Dead bodies. Missing clocks. Lord Downey kidnapped (perhaps less unfortunate than the first two). Ankh-Morpork once again becomes the stage for the City Watch, and they are tired of acting.
Lady Vetinari presides. Lady Sybil wonders what's going on with her...husband...
And Vimes, while chasing a man who is rapidly becoming an aardvark, stumbles into a lesbian bar.
Things are, in short, complicated.

Summary
A platter of ham sandwiches and assorted snacks tested gravity on Vetinari’s forearm. He was wearing - ye gods, he was wearing sandals and sunglasses. Black sandals and black sunglasses.
Vimes’s mouth dropped open. “Respectfully, sir,” he said, gesturing vaguely at Vetinari’s entire being, “what the fuck.”
(Vimes and Vetinari spend a day at the beach.)

Summary
You are Tarnished. You arise from the dark. You nurture the power of death in your hands. A longsword bows your back; you are a scythe-shaped monstrosity swallowed by a world that you do not recognize. And, you remember, you remember: you are Harrowhark Nonagesimus, the Reverend Daughter, a Priestess of the Ninth, a scholar, now Tarnished, and you are the most powerful necromancer of your generation.

“Is there something out the window, Drumknott? If any more pigeons come through, I am inclined to let them nest instead of dooming another street patroller to conspicuously white shoulders.”

“How do you want me to do it?” Vimes said.
Vetinari produced a knife like he’d been expecting the question. “I think this is the cleanest way."

Summary
His mouth was suddenly dry.
“What…? I mean, what would you want from me? If Sybil was alright with it, I mean.”
Vetinari’s eyes darkened. “Whatever you were willing to offer, Vimes.”
Vimes remembered the feel of the man's lips against his throat, and understood with dawning horror that he was willing to offer him everything.
When Vetinari falls under the influence of a poison that lowers inhibitions, he turns to the only man he can trust.

Summary
When they realise they're the only two people in the city who know a certain secret about their bosses, Angua and Drumknott form an unlikely alliance.
A support group, if you will.
Alright, this started as a bit of a joke, but now it exists and it is also now - finally - complete.
It runs alongside canon so there's spoilers for Fifth Elephant, Jingo and The Truth.
