Holly takes over the writing of Lisa, Jody, and her own adventures. Now they’ve discovered how to teleport themselves, the three girls spend rather less time flying, but as they can’t teleport to somewhere they’ve never been, being able to fly is still an advantage. It’s a good thing Jody learned how to fly a plane, the three girls combine to rescue one out of control with no pilot. Holly has to deploy her secret weapon when the girls are asked to protect a notable figure, the Prime Minister no less. All three of the Angels get a bit damp when the river floods, but not nearly as damp as their friend Louisa. It’s not only Jody who has an imaginary world in her head, Holly seems to have one too – and then there’s Lisa!This is Holly’s bit of the story, from her point of view.Holly takes over the writing of Lisa, Jody, and her own adventures.

The Saskias, Saskia Chandler and Saskia Hunt, are off on holiday to America. But before they go they have a few things to attend to, both as the SuperTwins, Kyra and Katya, and as themselves. Saskia Chandler discovers she needs to use the knowledge and experience gained when she was still Richie and worked in IT to unravel a mystery involving robberies from ATM machines. Saskia Hunt seems to have come to terms with just exactly who Saskia Chandler actually is, now it’s just up to Saskia Chandler to come to terms with that for herself. The Twins find themselves shunted backwards and forwards in time, sometimes only a little way, sometimes hundreds of years - and once into a timeline that has no beginning - and no end. Despite trips to the Moon and to Houston, this time with Rio to assist them, eventually they get to go on their holiday. But they find they still need to use their super powers as they get dragged back to Britain to prevent the whole of South East England becoming an uninhabitable wasteland. Perhaps the strangest thing of all happens in Chicago when they meet two men who were deadly enemies - in the nineteen twenties. But there’s a problem - they have no means of returning to their own time!

Kyra and Katya are super girls. At the same time they are Saskia and Saskia, a couple of normal teenage girls. Naturally they can’t spend all their time as the SuperTwins, so the Saskias have ordinary jobs to go to, and ordinary lives to lead. Despite that, they are always on hand to use their powers to deal with disasters like tornados, train crashes, and a collapsed school. Occasionally they have to use their powers while being the Saskias, saving the Prime Ministers life and subduing a gunman at the plant where they work being a case in point. Sometimes it’s nice to use those powers just for themselves, on a day out, to the Moon! Their ability to travel in time sees them appear on TV, both as the Saskias and the SuperTwins - at the same time. Just because they look like Saskia and Saskia instead of Kyra and Katya doesn’t stop them helping people to achieve what they want in life, Rio gets to do what she wants, with a little help from the girls as they compete against each other in racing cars.

Rio is a schoolgirl, a schoolgirl who can hear what other people are thinking. This can lead her into all sorts of situations, such as doing jobs for the Air Force and preventing stuff being blown up by bombs. It can also lead her into a whole lot of trouble, when, together with her best friend Jennie, she gets kidnapped and very nearly killed. Luckily she has friends in high places, at least when they fly. The SuperTwins are needed several times to extract her from the problems she gets into. She gets to find out all kinds of secrets, one of which is just about the biggest secret of them all, a secret which leads her into the strangest adventure of all.

Lisa, Jody and Holly, helped by Louisa, their Girl Friday and general gopher, have very well developed ESP abilities. They can use Telepathy, telekinesis and teleportation. One of their most useful skills lies in protecting people from bullets and bombs - a skill that sees them in great demand by the Police and the Security Services. Angel Shorts is a series of four stories following the adventures of the girls as they deal with bomb, bullets and others with powers like theirs

A Precog is a vision of a future event, in this case a disaster involving a bomb and quite a lot of military personnel. Lisa, Jody, and Holly, the three Angels, have discovered that these visions of future events can be changed so they don't happen, or at least aren't as bad as foreseen. To do that they need to use their mental ESP abilities to the full as they attempt to foil a terrorist attack on a military base. The trouble is, there doesn't seem to be a reason for the disaster Lisa has seen in the precog. Nevertheless, it's going to happen and a lot of people will be killed - unless the Angels can stop it.

Louisa works for The Angels, a group of three girls with quite formidable ESP abilities. Louisa herself has only a little of abilities enjoyed by the others but she’s working hard to improve. The Angels have a problem. Somebody is using ESP abilities for their own selfish ends, banks are being robbed and people are being injured or even killed. The bad guys are apparently involved with several terrorist groups, something that brings them into direct conflict with The Angels who are used to using their abilities to protect people and visitors high up in the government. When the girls are on site, people can be shot at, but nobody gets shot, something that means they are in big demand from time to time. Things come to something of a head when it becomes obvious that the unknown terrorists are targeting The Angels specifically, trying to remove them from the scene to give their organisation free reign to do what they want. Naturally The Angels aren’t allowing that, and a series of confrontations take place between the girls and their unknown assailants. Louisa finds herself well and truly in the midst of all the mayhem. This has the effect of awakening her latent ESP abilities as she has to extract herself from various stressful situations. Eventually Louisa even manages to merge herself with the other three girls as they join their minds together to become Angel, one girl but with three sets of everything like eyes, ears and hands. Angel becomes, not three girls, but four as Louisa joins the merge, finally becoming The Fourth Angel.

Cade Knight was born into a family of spies. Espionage is in his blood. Cade helped his father design the J-Phone, the most significant invention in the history of spy craft--complete with Eavesdropper, Impersonator, and Hacker apps. Together, he and his father customized a J-Phone for the president of the United States, enabling him to launch nuclear weapons from the Nuclear Football app. Too bad the J-Phone falls into the wrong hands, and enemy agents hunt for those who know how to use it. When family members begin to fall off the grid, Cade and his twin sister call on years of training to identify and infiltrate the opposition. They must rescue their mother, retrieve the J-Phone, and reunite the family. Failure could cost one life or a hundred million. Sword of Damocles is a young adult spy novel set in Washington, D.C.
