This collection contains the seventh and eighth Bureau stories:CAROLEDCharles Grimes hasn't celebrated Christmas in years, so spending December in San Francisco while keeping an eye out for monsters sounds like an easy way to earn a few bucks. He should have learned by now that nothing is ever easy-not his job, not his existence as the son of an angel, and not his relationship with a formerly captive demon. It's going to take more than a few rounds of Jingle Bells to make Charles feel the joys of the season.CAMOUFLAGEDLife isn't always easy for a Bureau agent who's also a dragon.Ever since Ralph Crespo was trapped in human form, he's been going through the motions at a job he once loved. Maybe that's why the Bureau chief seems to have demoted him to messenger. But this time a letter delivery allows Ralph to meet Anton Steinmann, and Ralph's life takes a turn toward the unexpected.Anton loves his remote home with its extensive caves. He's less fond of his leadership position, however, and definitely doesn't want the offer Agent Crespo hands him. Then Anton is kidnapped and tortured. Someone wants him dead and he doesn't know why.How can anyone be true to himself in a world where he doesn't really belong? Perhaps Ralph and Anton can find the answer together-if they survive long enough.
