Never, ever, let yourself get caught… who knows what may happen?

Quick-Kill is a self-made assassin and tekhead. But after a simple job blows up in her face, she finds herself running for her life. And so begins a fun, fast-paced, action-stuffed, gender-bending futuristic four-story thrill ride!

The forgotten, seedy backwater planet of Plenty (the most unfortunately-named world there ever was), is no place for a girl to grow up parentless and alone. But self-styled, femme fatale and genius gun-for-hire, Quick-Kill Jane, was no normal kid. She learned her trade early on and made a name for herself. And by the time she became an adult, everyone feared and respected that name in equal measure.

In what should’ve been a straightforward job—one of the many she had built her reputation upon—she finds herself in pursuit of a small-time criminal and wife-beater, Rollo Barla. But things do not go to plan.

She learns that the contract on Rollo was ordered by the Cabal, a loose network of galactic criminals, and that they, and the equally shady Galactic Secret Service, were now in competition to chase her down.

Quick-Kill must use all her considerable talents, skills and guile to stay one step ahead. But events take an unexpected and extraordinary turn.

A twist that will change Quick-Kill’s life forever…
