Now reunited with her one-time protector and former Blade Runner AAHNA ‘ASH’ ASHINA, Cleo and Ash set off on a desperate race to find her mother and escape back Off-world before Luv can find them.

Now, as Ash’s past and future collide, her astonishing story finally concludes as she faces her greatest challenge yet: saving the city she loves from the insane machinations of Niander Wallace, heir of the Tyrell empire. It's up to Ash to keep the truth about the Replicant miracle (seen in Blade Runner 2049) a secret, and to fulfill the pact she made years ago to those she loves most.
