Twenty-five years ago, the streets of New York City lost its monsters and its saviors in the same night.
Daredevil vanished. Bullseye disappeared. The Punisher went silent. And The Rattlesnake became nothing more than an urban legend whispered through alleyways and old police files. They didn't die. They didn't lose. They simply walked away.
For decades, no one knew why. Some blamed age. Others blamed bloodshed. But nothing made sense, excrpt for the most persistent rumor. One far more dangerous: a love triangle between Bullseye, The Rattlesnake, and Daredevil that ended in betrayal, and that tore them all apart.
Now, struggling a journalist, Anne Louise Williams, is desperate for one last chance. Once a rising name in fashion media, now unemployed and forgotten, she needs the kind of story that can resurrect a career.
So she does the impossible. She asks them all for an interview. And to everyone's shock... they agree.
But Anne isn't interested in old crimes, masked wars, or the bodies left behind. She wants the truth no one ever uncovered: Why did they leave?
Told in interview format, "The Target I Was Fated To Miss" follows old grudges resurface, buried desires awaken, and the past refusing to stay dead, Anne may discover that some legends disappeared for a reason. And bringing them back together could cost far more than her career.
