Compelling.

You've left so many unanswered questions. What happened to Jonathan and Martha? Where did Clark get those torture marks? Will they fade in the sun, or are they permanent? Was Trask really that stupid or did Moyne push him? If Moyne did kill two (maybe three?) other agents, was he obeying orders or does he have his own agenda? What about Lois' best friend? What happened to her to make her need to hide in Metropolis for a long while? How long will you let us twist in the wind before you answer these and other pressing questions?

Not only is Clark going to have to learn to trust Lois, Lois is going to have to learn to trust Clark. Right now, she can't lean on any of her three "associates," especially Moyne. She'll have to watch her back when he's around.

Very good title and very good setup. I think we're in for a very entertaining ride.
