Summary
When Aurora Carmichael receives a frantic call from her estranged mother, she leaves Metropolis and the life she built under the guidance of Lois Lane and Clark Kent to return to Gotham. She arrives too late—Georgia Carmichael is murdered in her private lab, and Aurora becomes the first witness to a crime that shakes Gotham’s elite.
Now responsible for her two younger sisters, Aurora is thrust back into the city she swore never to return to. Estranged heiress. Award-winning journalist. Survivor of war zones. She’s more than Gotham’s social circle remembers—but they’re about to find out.
Assigned to the case is Detective Richard Grayson, Gotham’s golden prince and Bruce Wayne’s heir in all but name. To him, Aurora is just a witness at first—fragile, unpredictable.
As Aurora begins unraveling the clues her mother left behind, she finds herself caught between Gotham’s glittering lies, dangerous secrets, and a murder that is far from random. And standing at her side, whether she likes it or not, is Richard Grayson.
