Marvel's hard-boiled private investigator is back!
JESSICA JONES was once the costumed super hero known as Jewel. She sucked at it. Now she's a private investigator at her own firm, ALIAS INVESTIGATIONS. She sucks less at that. But her past always comes knocking, and when a woman whose case she fumbled years ago winds up dead on her office floor, Jessica goes from private investigator to prime suspect. Hunting for answers, she finds herself ensnared in the schemes of a serial killer targeting women with powers, and as her investigation continues and every clue pulls her deeper into a nightmare she may not escape, the darkness only grows closer to home. When Jessica's daughter, Danielle, suddenly manifests purple skin, Jessica is forced to confront the shadows of her past with the PURPLE MAN and the fragile foundation of her family with LUKE CAGE. As secrets unravel and old wounds are torn open, Jessica must face the most harrowing questions of her life: what kind of mother is she--and what kind of future can she give her child? With guest appearances by DAREDEVIL, SPIDER-MAN, DOCTOR STRANGE, and ELSA BLOODSTONE - this critically acclaimed saga from Eisner Award-winning writer KELLY THOMPSON channels the raw, hard-boiled pulse of pulp noir in the tradition of the very best crime stories.
