Wing Chun Gung Fu martial artist Kirin Rise took dystopian Chicago by storm in her debut adventure, Kirin Rise: The Cast of Shadows.Now she's back for a whole new set of trials. Kirin is determined to bring hope in the midst of a bleak reality. Her recent victory in the Dome has attracted the attention of the most powerful man in the UFMF.
It is now 2033, and Kirin's victory has given her global celebrity status. She can't go anywhere without being mobbed by adoring fans. Kirin is happy that she has connected with the public but also wary of her newfound fame. It can turn on her in an instant.
People are looking for anything to distract them from the deteriorating conditions in America. Through their disillusions, the UFMF has become the largest corporation in the world. The head of the UFMF is busy perfecting a super-soldier serum that goes beyond ignoring pain.
At the same time, Kirin struggles with her family's opinions about her fighting career and unanswered questions about her biological parents and their deaths in North Korea. Her mentor, Sifu, is dealing with trouble and trauma of his own. Fighting comes easy to Kirin, but matters of the heart are a different story!
