Book Description

Abducted as a child. Forced into combat training. Groomed to be a teen spy. Expected to become a female assassin.

Emily won't be a test specimen too.

Three years ago, after prolonged mental and physical abuse, Emily Brelin's genetic structure changed. New abilities emerged, but she hid them from her captor, a rogue general. Fearing she'd be experimented on, Emily escaped and fled across the globe to New York's largest metropolitan area, Golden City. There, she met a sympathetic professor who offered her a new home, a new identity, and a new start.

The professor protected Emily's secrets, until cancer intervened. On her deathbed, she made Emily promise to meet her best friend, a female detective who could keep the teen safe.

Now, despite reservations, Emily is racing to complete her vow. But the general wants his prized teen weapon back. He's hunting Emily--and her cover is unraveling.

Detective Vick Tacket is shocked when she learns her best friend has died. She's more stunned to learn the professor had a hidden dependent and named Vick--a single woman with no maternal interest--as the teen's guardian.

But when mysterious girl disappears, Vick scours the streets of Golden City searching for the missing teen.

What she discovers could get them both killed.
