Opis

In the dystopian future the majority of the country is under the totalitarian rule of a multinational scientific corporation known as BOSS (Believers of Sacred Science). The blue hood is an ominous master assassin; the boogeyman in the shadows and the tool of submission for the corporation. No one ever sees him, no one ever hears him. The only evidence of his presence is the sudden absence of loved ones, colleagues, and acclaimed figures. But what happens when a tool grows a soul? What happens when the purity of death is marred by the convolution of right and wrong? When "what" becomes shadowed by "why" and gives birth to "who," this assassins world becomes much larger; and for all his terror and power he feels dwarfed by it and undone by questions he is ill equipped to answer. Ironically, those answers are unveiled by a woman who appears to be in more peril than himself. A seemingly unknown and beautiful bystander turns out to be the key to unlocking a monsters heart. After the ball of lies from BOSS start to unravel the strands left behind tie together a picture far more frightening than anything the two of them could imagine. A soulless assassin, a down trodden woman, and a failed country bring forth questions from the darkest secrets never spoken. The search for these answers will cause him to ally with enemy. For a beautiful stranger, her purpose and promise will collide; and the rule of an iron fist will do anything to hide its dirty hand. When their destinies are all forced to change paths, the entire planet will feel the strain of their discoveries.
