Ember Starden is the 11th successor in the long and prosperous Starden line of entrepreneurs, philanthropists, politicians, world-famous entertainers, and (shh... it's a secret) assassins. She's been through rigorous training, and she's been learning the art of weapons ever since she took her first steps. 
  
  Gage McWillson was employed by the MI6 Agency shortly after he completed his studies at University of Cambridge. He can speak 7 languages fluently, and carries himself with the consummate ease of a man who thinks he has experienced the worst that life and death have to offer.
  
  Things changed for our beloved characters after one fateful night three years ago. Neither had a knowledge of just how closely fate had tied them together, and neither had any plans to do anything about it. So why now? Was it truly fate that tied them together, or was it just a person? Can they see ahead of what they have become and reach into the past to secure the future?
