    Summary

    Jason thought he was the only one the family failed.

    Then a twelve-year-old showed up at his door, soaked to the bone and shaking, asking if he could stay.

    Tim Drake was never supposed to find him — not here, not like this. But he did. And now he's asleep in Jason’s bed, curled up like he belongs there, like he’s always belonged there, and Jason can’t stop thinking about the way they all let this happen. About how a kid this small had to carry the weight of the family on his back just to keep them from falling apart.

    Jason was forged in fire. Tim’s been surviving in silence.

    And in the quiet, with the past still burning and the ghosts still breathing, Jason makes a promise:
    He won’t let this one fall.
