    Summary

    George Russell is finally where he has longed to be his entire racing career: in a head-to-head title fight with Max Verstappen, holding his own against the four-time World Champion. With six races left in the season, George is closer than ever to what his every waking thought has been consumed by – not only becoming World Drivers’ Champion, but beating Max while he’s at it.

    But then a collision on track changes everything: George wakes up in Max’s body, and Max in his.

    Trapped inside the life of the rival he has spent years trying to defeat, George is forced to confront a lifetime of bitter feelings, as every win he takes in Max’s body will only be added to Max’s legacy – and intentionally crashing out would just play into the hands of Oscar Piastri, their silent pursuer looming ever closer in the rear-view mirror.

    To save his championship, George must do the impossible – get Max Verstappen to cooperate, all while the lines between them begin to blur.

    Summary

    Max Verstappen has been bitter about the hand life dealt him for as long as he can remember. While his cousins grow up in ancestral estates and lavish mansions, he spends his childhood in a dingy motorhome, enduring the wrath of an abusive father.

    Cunning, charming, and utterly ruthless, Max claws his way out of that life the only way he knows how – through lies, well-played deception, and perfectly executed cons. With a loyal crew of misfits at his side, he’s built an existence on the edge of society. Yet for Max’s insatiable hunger, this quiet life of petty scams isn’t enough. He’s only ever wanted what he believes should be his.

    So he fixes his gaze on his greatest target yet: a heist against his spoiled, undeserving cousins – Lordling Lando Norris and billionaire’s heir Lance Stroll – the perfect marks to finally undo the shitty hand life dealt him.

    Standing in his way is Detective Inspector George Russell, lead investigator with Scotland Yard’s Major Investigation Team – a man with a spotless reputation, a razor-sharp mind to match his own, and a personal history with Max that neither of them can escape.

    Summary

    Something is brewing. A great storm that could shatter life as its known. More and more often, androids are breaking free of their original programming. More and more often, androids are turning against their owners in increasingly violent ways.

    And the only ones that can stop it are Wilbur Soot—the youngest lieutenant in police history and now a drunk, washed out detective—and an android of the 1NN1T model named Tommy, an advanced prototype created to solve crimes and catch rogue androids. But first they actually have to get along.

    Or,

    Two idiots, a robot and a depressed detective, walk into a bar. One comes out experiencing emotions he shouldn't be able to, and the other comes out with a reason to live.

    Spoilers for Detroit: Become Human, but knowledge of the game isn't necessary to enjoy.

    Summary

    “No way,” Wilbur mutters, reading back again. He looks at the notes at the corner of the table, and then back to the handwriting in the journal, eyes wide. “No fucking way.”

    Everything adds up now, the forest, the tree, the notes, the dice; there was no external murderer, there was no other person involved. There were only two people in that forest, and the two people in there were Tommy and Toby. He realizes, with agonizing terror, that the murderer —

    He jerks around when someone touches his shoulder, and Tallulah jumps back, alarmed, hand tense. “Dad?”

    “Tallulah, hey,” he says, relaxing immediately, eyes softening. Holy shit.

    or:

    The murder of Toby Smith and the missing persons case of Thomas Craft is revisited after many years, and is solved properly through the points of views of those who grieved. Everyone’s struggling in so, so many different ways. It is finally time to let the file rest.

    Summary

    In Manburg there's no mercy for criminals. Getting caught by the guards is an immediate death sentence.

    Tommy has managed to avoid them for 9 years now--by day, as an arrogant pickpocket with a mouth almost as fast as his hands, and by night as the renowned Underground thief known only as Theseus.

    Things are going well, all things considered.

    And then he gets a message from the infamous Antarctic gang and everything goes to shit.

    Now Tommy has to handle pulling off the heist of his life, all while hiding his true identity from both the tyrannical government and his new associates in the most feared gang in the city.
