Synopsis

"The only thing in this world you can truly control is yourself."

Janey Sinclair's ability to teleport has always been a mystery to her. She tried for years to ignore it, but when tragedy shatters her life, Janey's anger consumes her. She hones her fighting skills, steals a prototype suit of military body armor, and takes to the streets of Atlanta, venting her rage as the masked vigilante dubbed "the Gray Widow" by the press.

But Janey's power, and her willingness to use it, plunges her into a conflict on a much grander scale than she had anticipated. Soon she encounters Simon Grove, a bloodthirsty runaway with a shapeshifting ability gone horribly wrong, Garrison Vessler, an ex-FBI agent and current private defense contractor, who holds some of the answers Janey's been searching for, and Tim Kapoor, the first person in years with a chance of breaking through Janey's emotional shell-if she'll let him.

But as Janey's vigilantism gains worldwide attention, and her showdown with Simon Grove draws ever closer, the reason for her augmented abilities-hers and all the others like her-begins to reveal itself. Because, high above the Earth, other eyes are watching. And they have far-reaching plans...Gray Widow's Walk is book one of the Gray Widow Trilogy, from international bestselling author Dan Jolley, co-creator of DC Comics' Firestorm.

Goodreads review by Jeff on July 12, 2016

Gray Widow's Walk was the book version of a classic comic book tale: a super power is given to an individual with a painful past that motivates them to fight back against the evil in the world. While the foundation is nothing new, the details of the story is what makes it fun. I enjoyed the lead cha......more

4++ stars that deserves the round-up. This book was/is to a fan of the superhero genre just flat out fantastic! I've said it before and I'll probably say it again some day, but when folks with experience in the actual BIZ of graphic novels put their minds to a story, they get it right! This story wo......more

Goodreads review by Jennifer on August 06, 2017

Complex characters with comic worthy characteristics that contains a lot of violence. This was my first glimpse of Dan Jolley's work. I liked this book although in total honesty it took me longer to read than I'd planned due to the violence (he did a good job of taming it down as this is YA, but a fe......more
