Synopsis
SUGAR AND SPICE
…and carbon-fiber bones.
The woman known only as “14” has been genetically modified and trained from birth to be a ruthless killing machine — no mercy, no questions asked, and no survivors.
In St. Louis, her latest killing spree has left dozens of innocent victims dead, and the questions are stacking up as fast as the bodies: what is her next target? Why is she doing this? And, most importantly, who is the mastermind behind the carnage?
Stone and Freya, the deadly brother-sister duo, are sent to stop the bionic killer before she strikes again. They’ve been trained in Sinanju, the greatest of all martial arts, so they expect it to be a quick and easy mission. But they were wrong — dead wrong.
As 14 and Freya develop an uneasy friendship, they discover an even greater threat: a diabolical dictator, hell-bent on destroying the United States in a nuclear holocaust!
