    Summary

    “Ooh, waiting for someone special?” Sharon asks with a wink.

    “No,” Agatha says, a little too quickly. “I just happen to know that someone has that ticket and that someone is not you.”

    “This someone wouldn’t happen to be that sharp dressed lady who is always knocking on your door?”

    “That’s my tax agent, Sharon,” Agatha says, like Sharon is an idiot. Sharon is an idiot. She’s also right, but that’s really not the point.

    __

    IRS Agent Rio Vidal and Enemy Of The State Agatha Harkness set aside their differences to go see a high school musical and it goes as well as you’d expect.

    Summary

    “I don’t have sex.”

    Agatha’s face screwed up somewhere between delight and incredulity, “You don’t ever?” She scoffed, “As in you’ve never at all? How long have you been here?”

    “Since the inception of life itself.”

    “And you’ve never fucked?” The way she said it, it did sound a little stupid, “What do you do to pass the time?”

    “I scare children,” Death shifted in her chair, still rubbing at the skin of one hand with the other. No wonder Agatha had nowhere to live, she thought. She was unbearable. “Amongst other things.”

    Or,

    Upon meeting Death, Agatha takes it upon herself to educate her on some of the finer points of being human.

    Summary

    They’re staring at each other over the now evenly stacked forms at the table. Agatha’s mask has fully slipped and Rio is fascinated by what’s underneath it, an unruly sort of anger, a sharp passion. Agatha looks like she wants to tear Rio from limb to limb. And Rio, god help her, would probably let her.

    “Moving on to property taxes…”

    “Jesus fucking Christ,” Agatha lets out. “Don’t you have a life?”

    Rio is the best IRS agent in her field. Agatha refuses to pay her taxes. A love story for the ages.

    Summary

    “Well…” Jen finally sighed, resigned. “She made it clear that if you want to ‘bury your love with style’,” she says it in a way Rio can tell it is a direct quote, “You’ll need to find flowers somewhere else.”

    Rio shook her head, still chuckling, amusement dancing in her eyes. Oh, this is fun.

    “Well, let’s see about that.”

    Rio Vidal is a famous award-winning actress and comedian, widely known for her string of casual relationships. Her assistant, Jen, is the one who always ends these flings on her behalf, delivering a special bouquet of flowers as a parting gesture. But when a certain florist refuses to accept the latest request, Rio decides to handle it herself and confront her in person.

    Summary

    “My ropes look good on you.”

    She hears a muffled voice coming from her back.

    Agatha’s hands and body strain involuntarily against the cords binding her wrists.

    The voice, unmistakably feminine yet toned, stops her thoughts cold. For a moment, there’s nothing—just an empty void, an echo reverberating in her skull. Then, all at once, everything crashes in. Nicky’s face. His smiles. His cold body against her skin. Her tears falling onto his lifeless face, dripping onto the closed lids of his vacant eyes.

    Her blood boils, surging so hot it feels like it might sear her veins, burning enough to implode her from the inside out.

    She’s in the same room as her son’s murderer. She’s in the same room as the woman who destroyed her life.

    “Everything looks good on me,” she spits, twisting her face toward the voice.

    Or, FBI detective Agatha Harkness has been relentlessly hunting a female serial killer known as “Lady Death,” whom she believes murdered her son, Nicholas.

    What will she do when the Killer contacts her?
