Six misfits. One impossible mission. Endless secrets that could change the DC Universe forever.

Amanda Waller has vanished without a trace, and with her goes a vault of classified secrets powerful enough to reshape the world. To track her down, Dreamer, Jon Kent, and Jay Nakamura must form an uneasy alliance with some of DC’s most ruthless antiheroes—Catman, Deadshot, and Black Alice. But trust is in short supply, and when hidden agendas collide, the real danger might come from within. As they race against Checkmate for control of Waller’s secrets, the fate of heroes, villains, and everything in between hangs in the balance. Nicole Maines and Stephen Segovia deliver a high-stakes, action-packed thriller where survival means keeping your enemies close—and your allies even closer.
