Aquila: Pressure Points

Alexandra Winters was engineered to be a ghost.
A prodigy turned assassin, she defected from the shadow world that built her, only to find herself hunted by the very hands that trained her. In the alleys of Berlin, in the neon-lit silence of safehouses, the Agency hunts her without mercy. Every mission, every heartbeat is survival.

But when Alexandra crosses paths with Dr. Iris Novak, a field doctor for an international NGO, survival takes on a new meaning. Iris is everything Alexandra isn't. She's grounded, warm, unflinching in the face of chaos. And now she's in the Agency's crosshairs.

What begins as a routine contract spirals into a collision of lives: an ex-operative with blood on her hands, and a doctor who refuses to look away. Forced into close quarters, trapped in firefights and whispered confessions in the dark, Alexandra must confront the one threat she isn't prepared for, wanting something she can't have.

As Berlin becomes a battlefield of shadows and pressure points, Alexandra will have to decide: keep running as the ghost they created... or fight for the one person who sees her as more than the weapon she was made to be.
