The last great war has been fought–but you wouldn’t know it here in the deep desert of what was once America. The sun beats down as it always has and always will on this unforgiving landscape. The few inhabitants of this land–oblivious and uncaring about the greater events in what was once a more civilized world–all except one. Months after the disappearance of her daughter, Emily–Jess Flood has resigned herself to daily survival when the unexpected happens: a radio signal from an unknown man playing music.

A decade of freezing darkness, and the sun is rising on what's left of humanity. Giant cities stride, roll, and crawl across the frozen wasteland, desperate to stay one step ahead of the devastating storms that share the planet with them. And yet, no one seems to remember that it's not just the weather that can kill. Wendy Milton rides the galleons - ships that carve their way through the ice on giant razors - securing the route for her home city. It's noble work, but there's profit to be made, too, especially if one happens to discover a wrecked machine from the pre-ice days.

Jameson Parker returns, angry and ready to lash out at the government that is selling his people to the vampires across the sea. But he has a plan to set things right: he’s going to rob The Vault, the magical leash that keeps all the warlocks in the country under the thumb of Whitehall. At least, he will if he can find the time; Death herself wants him to find her missing sister, and it's quite possible the most dangerous wizard in British history is back from the dead with schemes of his own.

Laying low in America, Jameson Parker is going to have to find himself a way to be useful if he wants to benefit from the protection of the paranormal power brokers on this side of the pond: bitter Machiavellian vampires. But when staying on their good side means sliding back into the darkness, is his survival really worth cutting ties with those he left behind?

Humberside City, nestled in the north of Britain, is on fire, and it has taken a few weeks for anyone to really notice. The fire brigade have been doing their best, as have the other emergency services, but whoever is behind the fires has been systematically running them ragged. Whitehall is worried. Something doesn’t add up, so they’ve dispatched a warlock - a former illegal mage, pressed into service of the government to deal with matters of the arcane - to look things over.

Victorian London is a playground, provided you are the right sort of person. Jack Snide has put a lot of effort into being exactly this type of person, and now it's all about to pay off. One final job, the score that will set him up for life and, ironically, it's entirely legal. Well, perhaps not entirely. Buying up a big part of the city does require money, a lot of it, and getting that amount of scratch together has been a little...tricky. But, ostensibly, it's all above board. It's almost like he's a good person.
