Summary
After a devastating fallout, Chloe Sullivan and Clark Kent are rival journalists in Metropolis, two ghosts haunting the corridors of power and information. She, at the aggressive Metropolis Globe, has buried her heart beneath explosive headlines. He, at the prestigious Daily Planet, hides his own pain behind a hero's suit.
A dangerous investigation into stolen technology forces them into an uneasy alliance. For Chloe, it's a chance to prove she doesn't need him. For Clark, it's torture to be so close to the woman he vowed to protect... even when she wants nothing to do with him.
But when the investigation puts Chloe in the crosshairs of a ruthless enemy, Clark is forced to confront the truth: he never stopped watching her. As an assassin with the power to unmake his targets hunts her down, a secret will be revealed: the planet's most powerful hero never got over the "friend" who left him behind.
