By the age of twenty-four, Air Force Staff Sergeant Mike Severance had already survived a series of missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. But his life back at home, in Texas, would prove a lot more dangerous… In the winter of 2005, Mike’s wife, a veterinarian named Wendi Mae Davidson, reported him missing. Wendi told police that Mike had been acting erratically—visiting local clubs, staying out late, sometimes not coming home at all. She filed for divorce the very next day. Eventually Mike’s body turned up in a stock pond on a private ranch. Investigators described a corpse that was weighted down with two cinder blocks, a rock, a boat anchor, and other equipment. It had also been stabbed forty-one times with a knife. But an autopsy report told a different story: That the cause of death was exposure to pentobarbital and phenobarbital, drugs commonly used in veterinary medicine. All the evidence pointed to Wendi…and soon she would be found guilty of murder in the first degree. Diane Fanning’s A Poisioned Passion is the true, shocking story of a war hero and a marriage that ended in cold-blooded murder.

On an alternative 21st-century Earth in which our world is one of many in the Multiverse, the Inter-World Alliance exists to keep the peace between the worlds – and keep the monsters out. Ever since a devastating magical war tore apart Ada Fletcher’s homeworld, she and her family have lived under cover on the low-magic Earth. Stuck in a dead-end job in London, Ada has spent her life hiding her true identity and her forbidden magic from the Alliance… until she’s accused of a crime she didn’t commit and taken into Alliance custody. The last thing she wants is to help Kay Walker, son of the absentee council member responsible for exiling her homeworld from the Multiverse, but when circumstances push them into an unlikely truce, there’s no going back.

The wonders of the Multiverse await them… if they can survive the storm that’s coming.
