Left bleeding on rain-slick pavement in a Tokyo alley that never slows down, Ja'Nae should have been a warning or a corpse. Instead, she becomes a message.
Protected by unspoken rules and written off as untouchable, Ja'Nae's assault sends shockwaves through Bonten's criminal underworld. Someone broke the code. Someone wanted her quiet, helpless, erased. But Ja'Nae survives and survival has always been her sharpest weapon. As whispers ripple through the syndicate and power shifts in the shadows, she realizes the attack wasn't just about Bonten. It was about her. A test. A provocation.
When a long-overlooked operative steps out of the darkness and Mikey himself enters the fray, Ja'Nae is forced into a game where observation matters more than brute force and patience is deadlier than violence. Wounded but unbowed, she navigates a world built on hierarchy, betrayal, and underestimated players, rewriting the rules as she goes.
In a city that devours the weak, Ja'Nae is neither prey nor collateral damage. She is the hunter.
And the game has only just begun.
