Ellen is doing her best.

Ever since the debut of Korps supervillain Redline, Ellen "Lawful Neutral" Foxpaw's perfect win record as a Hero has turned into a string of humiliating losses. As she and her twin sister struggle to pay rent, a sudden escalation forces Ellen to examine just how far she will go to keep her sister safe.

With her life irrevocably changed, Ellen finds herself grappling with new questions. Who is she, if not Vixie's protector? What does she want to do when she's not up against a ticking clock? Is there anywhere she truly belongs?

When the cape is gone, what's left of her to love?
