Summary
Ophelia Carter is both an aspiring artist (ignoring the fact that most of her commissions are to paint overweight pets) and a cleaner for the rich and the powerful. It is through this that she meets one Mycroft Holmes, who has a ‘minor role in the British Government’, of which Ophelia thinks is bullshit. The thing is, Ophelia kind of gets the impression that beyond the icy exterior, he is only slightly possessive, rude and terrifying.
Also, she has a sneaking suspicion that she should not find him as amusing as she does. People are starting to think she’s mad.
A trail of murders from the last two years lead, eventually, to Ophelia, and thank God for the fact she cleans Mister British Government's house, otherwise she would be so screwed.

Summary
It's been a year since Din has seen Luke Skywalker. Ever since Grogu's return, he hasn't given the Jedi much thought.

Wanting to make sure he is okay, he makes his course for the most likely place he'll be.
What he finds on the planet is an anything-but-okay Skywalker. Determined to help, he takes care of the Jedi. Both of them experience their own set of struggles over the past, but perhaps they can help each other through it, as they grow closer and closer. But Din fights with his feelings and his creed, terrified of breaking either of those. All while an increasingly larger Imperial threat looms over them, threatening the safety of force-sensitives.

Summary
It’s not that you don’t think anyone will ever catch you, it’s just that it’s been three years, and none of them have yet. There have been a few close calls, certainly. One even got you as far as the Inner Rim before you managed to reroute his ship, steal his blaster, and send him careering out of the air lock. The thing about bounty hunters is that they almost always think they’re better than you: they think they’re cleverer, stronger, and more capable – and they never are.
Until this one.
Din Djarin goes after a new bounty on Axxila: a woman who's somehow slipped away from every other Bounty Hunter the Guild has sent after her. For your part, you just wants an easy life: to move on from the choices you made in the past. But Din's left his bounty hunting days behind, and his hunt for you is about more than just picking you up and taking you back to the guild. Together, you embark on a journey that will finally allow Din and Grogu to live in peace, and when you're finished, there might be room for one more in their clan of two.

Summary
Beth is in her early 20s when Wildfire happens, living in Atlanta with her boyfriend, Jimmy, when the dead start to rise and feast on the flesh of the living. Jimmy left days ago to find more food, but never came back. When the last of the food runs out Beth ventures out onto the streets herself, hoping to make her way back to the family farm, but it's not that easy. Luckily, there's a dirt-encrusted angel nearby to lend a hand.
--
There were bodies everywhere. Alive, dying, dead, and all of them still moving. The streets in between were smeared with blood, some of it dried under days of the hot Georgia sun, and some of it fresh and slick and another hazard for Beth to dodge as she ran. The bone-chilling groans of the dead and the screams of everyone else had filled her ears until her head hurt, but now, now the ringing in her ears was growing so loud it drowned out every other noise.

Summary
The multitude of crimes and the organized crime overruling the control of the country left the government in desperate times. Hence, they took desperate measures - they built a wall around the worst cities, tossing lost cases into these cities as if they were trash bins. Andrew didn't give a fuck about it. Not until he was condemned to Palmetto, and by that, condemning Nicky and Aaron with him.
You either had money and power or you were an exy player to have the chance to give Palmetto the finger and get out. That was how Andrew ended up as one of the Foxes' goalies. As the law of life is to get worse when it still can get worse, Andrew's problem wasn't only to help this basket case of a team to win the famous All For The Game Championship and avoid this Raven player who was also a member of the mafia.
