Living in Titan City, 23-year-old Gracie Chapel has heard of the Crimson Wraith, the masked vigilante who, along with his sidekick the Wily Wisp, has fought a war against crime for 80 years. She never expected to meet him though. Gracie is a girl accustomed to rescuing herself, should she need it.

But when their paths cross, Gracie finds herself not only receiving the Crimson Wraith’s aid. She will help him solve a murder whose roots go back through the hero’s decades-long career…

This complete edition collects Parts 1-4 of Crimson Wraith: Legacy of the Hood, previously published as e-book novellas.

A gritty, comic-book-inspired thriller for mature readers.

Book Trailer:

“Don’t,” the Crimson Wraith repeated, keeping his red-gauntleted hand raised to her.

Gracie didn’t. She didn’t anything—didn’t move, didn’t blink, for a moment she didn’t breathe, and she didn’t let go of the broken bottleneck with its viciously sharp edge.

The words came hard through her clenched jaw. “Don’t what?”

“You can put that down. You don’t have to use it.”

“Wait... Are you…” She looked at Zack, that useless, abusive piece of shit, motionless on the ground. “Are you trying to protect him?”

“The fight is over,” the Crimson Wraith said. “You can let it be over.”

Gracie exploded. “There is a seriously fucked-up girl back there! Her eyes… Her face… I don’t know if she’s going to be okay!” Tears came now. “And are you really trying to protect the motherfucker who did that to her? Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of hero, defending the defenseless or some shit?”

“He can’t defend himself, but it’s not him I’m trying to protect. It’s you.”

“Me?” Gracie couldn’t help but laugh. “You don’t know me. You don’t know anything about me.”

“I know you’ve never killed before. Whatever else you’ve done doesn’t change how taking this man’s life would affect you.”

She raised the jagged glass, pointing it toward the Crimson Wraith’s palm. Zack’s blood darkened the bottle’s emerald sheen. “Maybe I’m okay with that. Maybe it doesn’t matter how it affects me. Maybe the only thing that matters is stopping him from ever doing anything like this ever again.”

“Maybe,” said the Crimson Wraith. “Maybe not. But one thing is certain; if you kill that man, I will have to bring you to justice. And I believe you might do more good for that girl he hurt—and who knows who else—from this side of iron bars than in prison.”
