A brutal crime leaves Katria’s father catatonic and her mother and sister dead. Katria is wounded physically, but the scars of the emotional damage refuse to heal. Vulnerable and angry, Katria accepts a dangerous and mysterious government job offer that promises to hone her genetically inherited ability as a deadly assassin. In return, Sziveria promises that the National Investigative Division will find those responsible for destroying her family. Three years pass and Katria has settled into a comfortable role as part of an elite team with a special skill set. The team has become a family, and yet Katria still has no answers about her past. Without warning, the close-knit team is recalled to Haven City where Katria is in for a shock. As it turns out, her contract requires more of her than her uncanny abilities with a weapon. Katria was unknowingly bound in marriage to the de facto team leader, an arrangement that may put them all in danger.
