35 -- Character With A Secret Identity

Prompt thirty-five is a character-based prompt. We’re specifically looking for a primary or secondary character with a secret identity.

A secret identity is when a character hides their true name. There are a variety of reasons why a character might have a secret identity. Some examples include: superheroes, resistance fighters in a war, detectives working undercover, a celebrity trying to live “off-grid” for a while, a criminal covering their tracks, a character pretending to be someone they’re not for specific gain, a character with a hidden past, an underage teenager trying to sneak into a club, characters at a masked ball, etc.

The secret identity may play a key role in the plot or story as a whole, or it may only be featured in a specific scene.

Oh man where do I even start with this one?!

Just about any novel about a superhero would work for this. I know it doesn't necessarily have to be superhero related, but that's the easiest option.

I've been wanting to read this so I'll probably go with it:

Batman: Resurrection

Spy novels as well - Red Sparrow by Jason Matthews was great.

I am already doing Palace of Treason by Jason Matthews for the "P" prompt, so I might use The Kremlin's Candidate (third in series) for this prompt.

The Diamond Eye, Kate Quinn

I was going through the lists for various prompts and realized I didn't need to look through this one, because I already have The Lure of the Moonflower by Lauren Willig on next year's TBR list.
