Summary: Kate Spencer, better known to Los Angeles' criminal element as Manhunter, has hung up the cape in favor of a normal life, which certainly doesn't involve any kind of relationship with Helena Bertinelli, Kate's best friend and co-vigilante, Huntress.  But news of a serial killer hunting lawyers in Miami draws Kate to the East Coast and Manhunter out of hiding.  With Kate and Helena on the case, it doesn't seem like anything can go wrong.  Until it really, really does.
Artwork:

Author's Notes: set a few months after the final issue of birds of prey and ignoring everything that's occurred since, including the events in the Oracle mini.  title from Yehuda Amichai's poem "Anniversaries of War."
