    Summary

    Stede had always seen the Door. It lurked in the corner of his vision, alive in his periphery. Sometimes, when he was feeling particularly small and the world particularly difficult—goose blood splattered on his face, rope burns on the backs of his hands—it emerged as something he could feel and touch.

    In those moments, the Door stood sure and proud, all saltworn wood and rusty nails. It beckoned, inviting Stede’s grip to its handle with the scent of brine and seaweed. Upon the lintel, in knife-carved letters, were the words: BE SURE.

    Summary

    Paleoanthropologist, Lucius Spriggs, has been on an archeological dig in Vancouver Island for the past three years, with nothing to show for it. Now, at the end of the dig, he's ready to finally be done and move onto the next project. But when his co-lead for the project, Jim, tells him about a major find, his entire attitude about the dig changes. And human history itself is forever changed.

    Meanwhile, in 45,000 BCE, a lone sailor washed up half dead on the shore of a random island, further north than he ever meant to go, and met the love of his life.

    Summary

    Stede Bonnet is a Case Manager for the Supernatural Children's Services Bureau, charged with ensuring the supernatural children in homes overseen by SCSB are taught to control and limit their use of magical powers. He leads a dreary and gray life of a droning bureaucracy until one day, he is tasked with an intensive month-long visit to the island home overseen by the mysterious and enigmatic Edward Teach.

    As Stede is pulled out of the rigid comfort of coloring inside the lines, unlearning all the ways he had learned to hide himself, he forms bonds with both the children and their guardian.

    But when push comes to shove, will Stede follow his heart, or stay on the road well-traveled?

    Summary

    Ed's boring call to his insurance company leads to him falling head over heels for a recorded voice that's part of the hold music.

    Maybe he's not doing so great, and it took a kind stranger doing a fun bit to make him see that. Or, maybe he and Hold Guy were always destined to be together.

    All he has to do now is find him...
