The Red Light Princess (Paperback or Softback)

THE NO GO ZONE IS IN FULL MOTION. Everything goes on the Night of the Clean Hands. There are only three rules: Old debts are forgotten. Payback is forbidden. Killing is outlawed. But just for one night. One night without the fear of death doesn’t sound like much, but it means everything in the slums.

Kai, born and raised in the No Go Zone, understands that even in a place forsaken by the rest of the world, order always creeps in. As a member of the 25’s, a local enforcement gang, Kai jumps from the rooftops and glides over the streets, keeping the population inside the separation barriers under constant surveillance.

When a string of copycat murders disrupts the festivities of the Night of the Clean Hands, it falls to Kai to uncover the mystery behind the killings. As we follow Kai through the underbelly of this urban jungle, we explore a lost city with unspoken rules and unravel the secrets behind its devotion for the Red Light Princess.
