About the Black Canary Novel (Paperback) Breaking Silence

Dinah Lance was eight years old when she overheard the impossible: the sound of a girl singing. It was something she was never meant to hear-not in her lifetime and not in Gotham City, taken over by the vicious, patriarchal Court of Owls. Now seventeen, Dinah can't forget that haunting sound, and she's beginning to discover that her own voice is just as powerful. But singing is forbidden-a one-way ticket to Arkham Asylum. Fighting to balance her father's desire to keep her safe, a blossoming romance with mysterious new student Oliver Queen, and her own need to help other women and girls rise up, Dinah wonders if her song will finally be heard. And will her voice be powerful enough to destroy the Court of Owls once and for all?
