- Trick or Treat: A Spade/Paladin Conundrum: Spade/Paladin
The teenage girl wrapped in a sheet calls herself Casper (as in "The Friendly Ghost"). But Secret Master of Fandom and private detective Spade doesn't find her friendly, and she's definitely not a ghost. Still, Paladin demands that Spade babysit Casper, and Spade never says no to Paladin. Even when it comes to babysitting on Halloween weekend, while Spade runs the second most important convention of the year. Because Paladin doesn't ask favors; she solves crimes. And apparently, she—and Casper—need help only Spade can provide.
- Unity Con: A Spade/Paladin Conundrum: Spade/Paladin
When Paladin calls Secret Master of Fandom and private detective Spade and asks him to come to a new con he swore he'd never attend, he agrees. Because he can't say no to Paladin. But what Spade finds when he arrives at the con makes him immediately regret the decision. A dead writer. Missing money. Organizers at each other's throats. Spade wonders if saving the con will prove impossible. But he vows to try. For Paladin. And for the future of the fannish community he loves so much.
