   Summary

   1953. A late reporter, a sleepless crimefighter, an Amazon diplomat, a Martian detective, and a Green Lantern who can’t keep a tab: five strangers tug the same thread: boardrooms, embassies, rooftops, and one Alexander Luthor. Before there was a League, there was a conspiracy, and the stories that made them.
