Aran's a researcher -- for a killer. Not a profession of her choice. With her keeper's death and the end of her servitude she may never have to plan another assassination, but she will kill to survive. Those who contracted her mentor's hits will come for her. She knows too many secrets accumulated the past decade analyzing the routine of those tagged for death.
