Sophie Foster is back in the Lost Cities—but the Lost Cities have changed.
The threat of war hangs heavy over her glittering world, and the Neverseen are wreaking havoc.
The lines between friend and enemy have blurred, and Sophie is unsure whom to trust. But when she’s warned that the people she loves most will be the next victims, she knows she has to act.
A mysterious symbol could be the key—if only she knew how to translate it. Every new clue seems to lead deeper into her world’s underbelly and the Black Swan aren’t the only ones who have plans. The Neverseen have their own Initiative, and if Sophie doesn’t stop it, they might finally have the ultimate means to control her.

plan for: the Scarecrow's secret house of corn! The villain soon
captures the duo, locking up Robin and forcing Batgirl to assist in
perfecting his new terror toxin. Can the two use their wits to
escape the frightful foe, or will they be stuck in sweet nightmares
forever? In this twisted retelling, DC Super Heroes and
Super-Villains collide with the Hansel and Gretel fairy tale to
