The truth behind the superhero legend.

Investigation of a routine death becomes anything but routine when detectives uncover the involvement of a mysterious beauty and a journal dating back to World War Two. The narrative reveals The Specials are a rare group of individuals appearing in various countries during the late 1930s. Details and sightings of their foreign and domestic exploits coalesce into the stories of our favorite superheroes.

In pre-war Washington, D.C., Navy Lieutenant John Barber recognizes Cynthia Carson's exceptional qualities and abilities. Their relationship blossoms. Soon, they are recruited by Hal Lyons of the Special Missions Office, John's Naval Academy classmate. Follow their adventures as they battle saboteurs intent on hamstringing the war effort, especially the mysterious project at a place called Los Alamos.

Concern over The Special's origins and a perceived threat to humanity by the war's end creates mistrust among the Allied governments. All the Specials except Cynthia go underground or are killed. Events split lovers Cynthia and John. They're reunited for a tantalizingly brief moment before a final devastating separation.

For over thirty years, John mourns the loss. Then he dies.

Or does he?
