Dave Lapham, the acclaimed creator of the ultra-gritty noir series Stray Bullets, weaves a startling story of the Dark Knight facing an unspeakable crime—now back in print as a softcover collected edition!
Bruce Wayne fails to recognize a cry for help from a wayward young girl—which sets in motion a chain of events that escalates to grotesque proportions. An inferno rages in Crime Alley. Six teenaged girls die a horrific death. A mother makes a desperate plea for the safe return of her missing daughter. These misfortunes unite the city—but the secrets revealed may tear it apart.
A guilt-ridden Batman embraces his role as the World’s Greatest Detective and descends into the deepest layer of the city’s underworld where he exposes the sinister roots of evil. In his pursuit of justice, the Caped Crusader faces some of his most dangerous enemies and learns some horrible truths about the people he’s sworn to protect.
This is Gotham City. Not every villain wears a mask. Not every hero wears a cape. Not every victim is innocent. And some secrets should remain buried.
