Summary
In the aftermath of the Riddler’s “cleansing” of Gotham city, the Batman works tirelessly to keep crime in check and assist the civilian population. An exhausted Bruce Wayne turns his efforts towards humanitarian relief for his city.
Things can never be quiet, however – a series of bodies start showing up in various locations in the Narrows, Gotham’s bottom of the barrel district. The masked crusader and Lieutenant James Gordon unite their efforts to catch the killer while also struggling with a corrupt police force. The case reveals complex ties to Gotham’s sex trade and reinforces the unfortunate truth that in Gotham trust is inadvisable.
A new tragedy strikes Gotham just as the situation is starting to look better – a terrible accident at the travelling Haly’s Circus leaves nine-year-old Richard Grayson orphaned. Suspecting sabotage, the boy goes looking for answers and runs into the mysterious Batman, also on the same track. Things get complicated when Bruce Wayne accepts Dick into his home, but there is a front of healing for all parties involved.
Time runs on and heals all wounds. Despite everything that might happen, the sun always comes back up. Stay put and feel the sunrise on your skin.
