The Maggie sub-series follows Maggie Killian, a Texas country music singer with a complicated past and a talent for finding herself in dangerous situations. All five titles — Shock Jock, Live Wire, Sick Puppy, Dead Pile, and Maggie Prequels — published in 2019, giving the sub-series an intensive, binge-friendly release pattern.
The music world gives the Maggie books a distinct flavor within the What Doesn’t Kill You umbrella: touring, recording, honky-tonks, and the specific social dynamics of the Texas country scene. Maggie is a bigger, brasher personality than some of the other WDKY protagonists, and the books reflect that with faster pacing and a sharper comic edge.
