Autorzy tomów to znani pisarze tworzący literaturę dla młodzieży, jak Kami Garcia, Lauren Myracle czy Leigh Bardugo, a za warstwę graficzną odpowiadają utalentowani ilustratorzy, tacy jak Gabriel Picolo i Kit Seaton. W jednej z powieści, Barbara Gordon, sparaliżowana po postrzale, trafia do Centrum Rehabilitacji Arkham, gdzie nastolatki z Gotham otrzymują pomoc. Musi przyzwyczaić się do nowej rzeczywistości, ale nocą zaczyna słyszeć dziwne głosy, a pacjenci znikają.
