Summary
Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."
Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."
(Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

Summary
Garret Jacob Hobbs dies in an ignominious pool of his wife's and daughter’s blood - it takes ten gunshots to do it. Will jokes privately to himself, which is to say he jokes to Evangeline at his side who he knows will understand because she is him, panting around her red mouth, that while he previously did not think he needed glasses, maybe he does now.
---
Will Graham's hiding in a polite shell. His daemon is not. After the death of the Minnesota Shrike, it is advised that he seek professional help in resolving that.

Summary
“You’ll have to still want to hold on through what I’ll inevitably do,” says Will.
Hannibal doesn’t quite laugh, but Will hears his teeth catch wetly on what is surely a smiling lip.
“If that wasn’t the events of the last forty-eight hours or so, I’m not sure what that would be,” Hannibal says in good humor for a man recently shot and seeping unseen somewhere behind Will, never one to let Will’s pessimism stop him.
“You’ll know,” says Will, and feels dread rise constant and roaring.
---
Hannibal and Will are caught immediately after the fall, and Hannibal refuses to let go of Will. Will agrees to accept this and their incarceration, with one last condition.

Summary
“There are only two truths around here. Any man can be king for a night,” the younger man says with a wry grin and long drawl, sliding cards from the card shoe into tidy rows in front of himself and Hannibal. “But by the morning, the house always wins.”
---
An investigation into the deaths of casino hostesses in Las Vegas is made more interesting by a strange card dealer with an uncanny skill at reading guests at his table. Hannibal investigates the depth of his skill, and the card player surprises him with how truly acute it is.

Summary
Doctor Lecter holds the scalpel in Will's hands between two fingers, eyes shiny with something like awe for the first time in their short acquaintance. It is the same look his father gives him the first time he sees Will’s trick in person. It is the same one Doctor Bloom gives him when he offers her the wilting peony tucked tight to his chest, back when it didn’t upset her to see.
“Very good, Will,” he whispers, and Will - barely awake, hand clutching the instrument as one meaning to write with it instead of sever - nods, and leans into the hand at his neck.
---
Will Graham’s imagination can pull things into reality from dreams.
At the behest of the US government, Doctor Hannibal Lecter has been hired to maintain his mental and physical health within the institution that keeps him.
