with her fiancé in the new nightmarish world unfolding before them. Dead Lies Dreaming Dead Lies Dreaming was marketed as the tenth book in the Laundry Files series but does not concern itself with the titular agency or its members apart from an occasional cameo. More accurately, it is the start of a separate trilogy set in the same world the author refers to as "Tales of the New Management". It is set in December 2016 and was released in October 2020. This novel is clearly based on the story of Peter Pan, and suggests that the author is back in a pastiche role again. Quantum of Nightmares Quantum of Nightmares is the second book in the "Tales of the New Management" trilogy, continuing the story of the main characters from Dead Lies Dreaming. It is set in December 2016 and was released in January 2022. The plot references elements of Mary Poppins book series and Sweeney Todd. Escape from Yokai Land Escape from Yokai Land (originally titled Escape from Puroland) is a novella in the Laundry Files series. It is set in March/April 2014 and was released in March 2022. The story takes place at the same time as The Nightmare Stacks and just before The Delirium Brief. The protagonist is Bob Howard, an intelligence agent for the Laundry. It is intended to explain why he wasn't in the UK during the events of The Nightmare Stacks. Following the death of his boss Angleton in The Rhesus Chart, Laundry agent Bob Howard is promoted to replace him and has to take over Angleton's ongoing projects. One of those projects is overseeing the wards that lock down magical sites outside the United Kingdom. Consequently, Bob has to travel to Tokyo on an overseas liaison mission with the Miyamoto Group in Japan, partnering with Dr. Yoko Suzuki. The Miyamoto Group is the Japanese equivalent of the Laundry and Dr. Suzuki is part of the Groups's Department of Apocryphal Organisms. The nominal purpose of Bob's mission is to police minor versions of Yōkai: a class of supernatural entities and spirits in Japan now growing more active as CASE NIGHTMARE GREEN progresses. But it becomes apparent that the real reason he's been brought to Japan is to confront an existential threat in the form of a hellmouth located beneath the Puroland theme park and a terrifying version of the Princess Kitty cartoon character.
