* ''Betrayal in Death'': [[PsychoForHire Sylvester "Sly" Yost]] is a [[ProfessionalKiller hitman]] who, while his estimated fee of approximately $2 million per hit, plus expenses, allows him to indulge a "[[ManOfWealthAndTaste refined and cultured taste]]", is utterly ruthless and vicious; Yost is believed to be responsible for over 40 hits. Yost's MO is to beat the victim, then rape the victim--regardless of gender--before finally strangling them with a [[CallingCard two-foot-long silver wire]]. Yost then takes a [[CreepySouvenir souvenir]] from the victim. Yost, hired to distract Roarke so hundreds of millions of dollars of items that Roarke's company is managing the auction of can be stolen, starts by killing a housekeeper at one of Roarke's hotels, then killing another employee who's also a friend of Roarke. Yost then attempted to kill Summerset; plans on killing Roarke himself--which would result in a bonus of $25 million--and then plans to kill Eve for free.

* ''Desperation in Death'': [[WouldHurtAChild Jonah K. Devereaux]] is the [[CorruptCorporateExecutive wealthy head of Reliable Delivery Services]], as well as the brains and money behind a vile, massive HumanTrafficking ring. "The Pleasure Academy" takes women and girls, with the latter as young as 11, if not younger, and grooms them--via drugs, electric shocks, and other methods--to become domestic slaves and {{sex slave}}s; the Academy also produces videos featuring its victims. In addition, the Academy occasionally holds auctions in which the girls are sold; in the most recent auction, Devereaux is even double-crossing his otherwise equally-vile partner, "Auntie" Iris Beaty, aka Iris Swan, who runs the Academy's day-to-day operations and considers Devereaux a friend. Devereaux also has his own sex slaves, and in fact is [[TheDogBitesBack killed by his newest one]] after he tells her how he plans to share her with his friends.
