Karma Girl / Jennifer Estep. -- New York : Berkley Books,
2007. -- 360 p. ; 21 cm. -- "Someone has to pay for what
happened to Carmen Cole. Bigtime, New York, is not big
enough for both Carmen Cole and the superheroes and
ubervillains who stalk its streets. An intrepid reporter,
Carmen's dedicated her life to unmasking the
spandex-wearers, all because her fiancé turned out to be a
superhero, and a cheating one at that, sleeping with none
other than his nubile nemesis. Exposing the true identities
of the nation's caped crusaders and their archenemies has
catapulted Carmen from her sleepy southern hometown to the
front pages of the country's biggest newspaper, The Exposé.
Hobnobbing with modelizing millionaires and famished
fashionistas is all in a day's work for a woman on the
trail of the Fearless Five and the Terrible Triad. But when
Carmen gets the scoop of her career, her life comes
crashing down around her. And even Bigtime's sexist
superhero, Striker, may not be able to save her." --
