[This story is being rewritten | Formally titled Bad Girls Have Bad Secrets]
Everyone is hiding something.
Some are killing for it.
After everything she's survived, Viktoria Navitski wants one thing.
Out.
But the city has other plans.
With the balance of power shattered, gangs are falling apart, leaders are dropping dead, and someone is carving a path through the chaos, one body at a time. Viki never wanted to lead, but it runs through her blood.
Caught between ruthless gang wars, and a shadow leaving no witnesses, Viki is pulled back into a world she tried to escape. As the violence creeps closer, and a boy with secrets begins to unravel her carefully guarded walls, Viki is forced to confront the truth she's been running from.
In a city ruled by secrets, you don't escape your past.
You become it.
