    Summary

    “I can see what you listen to on Spotify, you know,” Lucius says, crossing one leg over the other. “You’ll have to tell me — how was ‘Sad Girl Starter Pack?’”

    "Lucius, I’m doing just fine,” Stede sniffs.

    Lucius says nothing, just tips his glass to finish his drink so he can use the coaster to fan himself. He lets the silence stretch until Stede’s unstoppable impulse to chatter finally wins out.

    “Alright,” Stede sighs, taking a prim sip of his beer. “I admit I may be feeling a little adrift.”

    Summary

    A new show opens at Milleflora Opera House, but each night someone in the audience falls asleep during the performance, dreams unusually realistic dreams, and dies by morning, leaving distraught ghosts behind. It should be a straightforward case....right up until it isn't.


    Edwin does not like coincidences—he believes the world simultaneously too random and too orderly—but he accepts that they do, on occasion, happen. But this morning brought a third ghost to their door in as many days, this time only minutes after the sun has even risen. A third ghost to have slept and dreamt and died before sunrise at the very same opera, well.

    That is most emphatically not a coincidence.

    Charles nods his agreement. “So we’re taking them all on, then. One big case.”

    “Indeed.”
