She was hired to capture a killer. She chose to save a survivor.
Sonnie Martinez barely survived escaping from a trafficking brothel five years ago. Now she scrapes by as a bounty hunter in the neon-drenched sprawl of 2077, taking whatever jobs keep her and her partner Rax alive.
When gun shop owner Seka offers 5,000 credits to capture Rachel Veicht-wanted for killing a Kosov enforcer-it should be simple. Track the target. Make the capture. Collect the bounty. But when Sonnie recognizes the diagonal scar across Rachel's face, everything changes.
It's the same brand that marks Sonnie's own cheek. The same trafficking syndicate. The same hell they both escaped.
Rachel isn't a criminal. She's a survivor who killed her captor in self-defense and has been running for seven years. Delivering her to Kosov means sending a fellow survivor back to the people who once owned them both.
Faced with an impossible choice, Sonnie does something that will cost her everything: she warns Rachel instead of capturing her.
What follows is a dangerous game of testimony and truth. Both women decide to fight back-not with violence, but by going public. Their testimony triggers a massive investigation that frees hundreds of women and brings down a trafficking empire.
But Kosov doesn't go quietly. With bounties on their heads and assassination teams hunting them, Sonnie and Rachel must survive long enough to see justice delivered-even as the costs mount and casualties grow.
A noir thriller about the choices that define us, the scars that mark us, and the price of freedom in a world where power protects itself at any cost.
Book One of The Neon Nights Series
Perfect for fans of Altered Carbon, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and Blade Runner.
