The Ballad of the Stars: Book One

At just 19 years old, Sarah Rogers was kidnapped by Hydra and turned into one of the world's deadliest assassins. Years of training, conditioning, and forced obedience erased her sense of self, leaving her as a cold weapon in Hydra's arsenal. But during a routine cryo-freeze, a scientist made a grave mistake-she doesn't know the specifics, but in that moment, Sarah's memories suddenly flooded back. The woman she once was returned, and with that, a single thought consumed her: escape. Waiting for the perfect moment, Sarah bided her time until her next mission, where she executed her plan to flee. Once free, she never looked back. However, her freedom was short-lived. Just when she thought she had finally broken free, Sarah was captured once again-but this time, her captor wasn't who she expected.
