Los Angeles, late 1990s.
Pagers buzz. Fax machines whine. VHS tapes rewind.
And bodies hit the pavement.
Wilshire is no ordinary private security firm.
It's a corporate death squad with powerful clients-and secrets dark enough to kill for.
Akira is one of Wilshire's most lethal assassins: relentless, disciplined, and deadly with a katana.
But when a routine hit goes wrong, she becomes the next target.
A desperate attempt to use the depravity she's uncovered as leverage backfires, and Wilshire sends its most feared enforcer-The Butcher.
Now Akira must survive long enough to protect those she loves and confront the violent past that made her who she is.
The blood trail won't stay in Los Angeles.
It stretches across oceans-from L.A.'s underbelly to the cobbled streets of Rome-where old sins and buried ghosts wait beneath a foreign sky.
Because this isn't about redemption.
It's about revenge.
And blood will flow.
