The Price Of Protection

Three years after the night Blüdhaven burned, the world still believes the "tragic flu" story-but the truth is rotting just beneath the surface.

Dick Grayson has traded his mask for a badge, fighting a secret war from within a government biohazard agency to keep his promise to the girl he rescued from the inferno. But when leaked footage exposes the monsters of the past, the fragile life he's built with Barbara Gordon is torn apart. Targeted by corporate conspirators and fighting for custody of his daughter, Sherry, Dick is pushed to his breaking point.

Just as the legal walls close in, a desperate call from the President pulls him back into the shadows. An impossible mission in rural Spain has gone dark, and the kidnapping of the President's daughter, Ashley Graham, reveals the terrifying return of a biological threat that should have died in the rubble of the NEST.

In a world where secrets are lethal, Dick must decide how much of his own humanity he's willing to burn to keep his family safe. The past is back, and this time, there is no one left to call.
