Three rules to survive the supervillain underworld: watch your back, show no mercy, and never reveal your deepest secrets... Street smart con man Gabriel Simonson is on a meteoric rise through the criminal ranks. His preternatural cunning has now earned him a place in the Warlocke's Inner Circle of elite henchmen, an enviable place of power among the shadows of the underworld. And a virtual death sentence for Gabe and his fellow minions. Warlocke is about to declare war on the West Coast's number-two supervillain, mutant kingpin of the drug cartels, the immortal Rosethorn. Casualties from such a crime war would be epic. The only way to prevent mass carnage and certain death? Steal one deadly secret...
