Ryen should've turned her in. Instead, he's offering her a deal to keep her ass out of jail. B is a mercenary with a flawless kill record, a neural HUD, and no time for corporate bullshit. The job was simple: assassinate NovaCorp's CEO. But after everything goes sideways, she wakes up with a stolen prototype implant fused to her chest, half her face rebuilt, and a deadline before the tech rewrites her from the inside out. Now she's got a body she can't control, and a detective with a past almost as broken as hers watching her six. Ryen wants to burn NovaCorp to the ground. B just wants to survive.
