Eight years ago, Harbor Corporation hired Trez as one of its Strikers, cybernetically outfitted commandos who carry out high-risk missions to advance the company's semi-public corporate wars. It should have been the perfect job for an adrenaline junkie: break into the opposition's building, dispatch the guards, find the target, do whatever the higher-ups demand. But Trez can't cope with the violence anymore.
She also can't afford to retire any time soon. Her hapless father owes money to the Makos, the most powerful crime ring in the city-state of Portland. If Trez can't pay off his debt, the Makos will expose Trez's carefully hidden past misdeeds to her employer. Forget being out of a job: she'll be jailed for life if Harbor doesn't eliminate her first.
Luckily, her longtime friend, colleague, and onetime fling Eric is determined to help her fix her problems. Can Trez swallow her pride, navigate mob politics, evade a colony of robot iguanas, and face down an anarchist cell before the life she's built for herself crumbles?
