For Katya Noskov, snuffing out lives was a cinch. Building friendships, however, is a more complex mission.
Katya Noskov always thought her career as an assassin would end in a violent death. She never imagined that the onset of age-related near-sightedness would force her into retirement.
Kat was comfortable with her solitary life, finding fulfillment in the work she did: eliminating the world of its very worst people. Now, faced with spending the rest of her years in stagnant boredom, Katya decides to take a risk into an arena she is completely unfamiliar with: long-term relationships.
But an assassin’s life has left her floundering and confused about how to function in the real world. As she ventures out to build a new life, Kat quickly discovers her unique skill set is not conducive to forging relationships. When she finds herself swept up in a friendship with three other women, Kat has to learn to trust people, let go of control, and push aside a lifetime of keeping secrets.
When Kat uncovers a secret that will tear them all apart, she has to decide whether to reveal what she knows and risk it all or keep it to herself.
