Our MC was unlike any other. She was the notorious underground street fighting champion, Queen of the Underworld. No one left the ring without at least 3 broken bones, a concussion and a broken spirit. She left her opponents on death's front porch, face down, ass up. And that's just her on a good day.
She was not righteous material. Hardly wife material if we're being honest. So imagine the surprise when the director of a secret agency that no one's heard of [kind of the point], recruits her into saving the world.
Join her and her new friends as they each try to survive this ridiculous plot, full of fighting, bickering, betrayal and a little bit of loving. *winks*

The grass on the other side of the law was not as green as people think.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
