Judas Rising

Time had doled no lessons in self-forgiveness for Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson, nor had it taught them to gift it to each other.Four years after Dick ran away from home, without a word to his proclaimed best friend, the two find themselves forced together by a mutual threat. Their invitations forbodingly, crafted from the body of a murder victim. They realize they are on the brink of having their entire world turned on its axis. Whoever their host was they knew as much about the two and their relationship as Dick and Barbara know about themselves, perhaps more.Together is the only way forward. Their next meeting thrusts them back into the past, to their old childhood hideout among the trees. Hashing out the details, working the case once again, old habits undead. They begin to crack open a lead, when their work is set aflame, toppling their sanctuary. Burning the last staple to their once stable relationship. Can they unveil the threat against them before time runs out, or will the fire only further and consume all that they hold dear?
