Thirteen-year-old Sam Cleary suspects that his mysterious and lonely neighbor, Mr. Smith, is actually a legend in hiding. 25 years ago, Granite City’s super-powered vigilante, The Samaritan, was pronounced dead in a warehouse, after a tragic fight with his rival, Nemesis. Most people think The Samaritan perished in the flames, but some locals, like Sam, are hopeful he’s still alive. With the city on the brink of chaos and crimes on the rise, Sam makes it his mission to persuade his neighbor to come out of hiding and save the city from ruin.
