    Summary

    Besides that there is that little feeling. A tinge of excitement and something she can't name because she's never felt it before. It reminds her of the moment following jumping off a building with her tether. Eyes closed, heart racing — and before she’s caught and anchored and reassured of her safety there is the half second of flying, of being pulled to the Earth. It feels similar enough here, captured and crystallized in that moment with Kate Bishop. Which begs the next question — will she experience it again?

    Summary

    After an eventful Christmas Eve - fighting Yelena, Kingpin, and arresting her mother - Kate Bishop just wanted to come to terms with a lesson on heroics she thought had come unfairly quickly and what better way to do that than drowning her sorrows at a dive bar?

    And if Yelena turned up with a bottle of vodka and the vaguest overture of friendship...Kate was going to be suspicious but she could do with a friend.

    Summary

    “So what will you do now?” Kate asks curiously.

    It is a simple question, but it's one Yelena has avoided asking herself for years, finding the moments it slipped through the cracks of her best laid plans, now all ground into dust at her feet, to be particularly uncomfortable. There has always been a job to do; or rather, there has always been a job Yelena has taken, hoping it might sand the gritty surface of her new reality down or at least fill in the gaps she did not care to peel further apart and examine closer.

    It has been a lifetime since she has had nothing to do.

    Summary

    It’s the weekend of Harper and Abby’s wedding, and this event has everything: ostentatious displays of New England wealth; bridal party brunches; themed cocktails; canapés; moonlit swims in the nude; exquisite torture; cold pizza; gas station popsicles; a copy of Machiavelli’s “The Prince”; a bruise on Sloane Caldwell’s shoulder that matches the dental records of one Riley Bennett.

    Summary

    The woman and her moss-coat drifted forward like she was walking on air. Her face seemed like one he had seen before, but when he tried to pull it out of his memories, there was nothing but a blank space, an open forest at the edge of a lake and he was alone.

    “My name is Rio.”
