Annie Bustamante is a cultural force like none other: an acclaimed filmmaker- an author- a comic book artist known for one of the all time best super-hero comics in recent memory. But she's never been able to tackle her longtime favorite superhero- the Lethal Lynx. Only known to the most die-hard comics fans and long out of print- the rights were never available-until now. But Annie is skeptical of who is making the offer: Bert Carlyle's father started Triumph Comics- and has long claimed ownership of the Lynx. When she starts getting anonymous messages urging her not to trust anyone- Annie's inner alarms go off. Even worse? Carlyle wants to pair her with a disgraced filmmaker for a desperate media play. Yet- for the first time since she started reading a tattered copy of The Legendary Lynx #1 as a kid- she feels a pure- creative spark. The chance to tell a story her way. She's not about to let that go. Even if it means uncovering the dark truth about the character she loves.
