Heroes Without, Monsters Within

Fight alone, die alone.

Blaze of Glory, Book 2

In the weeks since Jo "Surf" Tanis and her rough-and-tumble band of super-powered actors broke free of the government-sponsored superhero show, they're all still dealing with the aftershock of adjusting to this thing called reality.

It doesn't get much more real than a mission to dig survivors out of what's left of Erie, PA, after a mysterious earthquake. A trembler that powerful is as out of place as Jo feels as the de-facto leader of the troupe. Not to mention the soul-shaking feelings she has for Hunter, a team member whose past as an Agency Guardian casts a heavy shadow over any possible relationship.

It seems one of the supers, an earth-warper named Ground Pounder, has gone rogue, using his freedom from the Agency's brand of virtual slavery to put the "villain" back in supervillain. Failure to find him before any more innocent bystanders are hurt means the team could be back under the Agency's thumb.

It's a burden that doesn't rest easy on Jo's shoulders...especially when the man who's invaded her heart is caught in the crossfire.
