No easy answers. No big international spy secret bank accounts. No superheroes or magic. Just her wits, guts… And a very large gun.
Training to be a killer was only the first half of the job. Now Kim has to put her life on the line – not just to get revenge on her crooked ex-boss, but to keep from being killed herself before she can take her first shot. Her only help is Cole, the crippled hitman who agrees to show her how to use a gun. And they’re up against not only a crew of murderous security guards – but Kim’s own fears and doubts as well. If she’s going to survive, she’ll have to do things she’s never done before – and become something beyond her wildest imagining.
Noted science fiction, fantasy, and noir author K. W. Jeter takes a new turn in the thriller genre, building on the dark, gritty moods of his previous science fiction and horror novels. Fans of mystery and suspense novels will find a lot to like in the Kim Oh series. It recalls Richard Stark's (Donald Westlake's) Parker novels but with a smart, tough female taking the lead. Kim is cousin to Sara Paretski's V.I. Warshawsky and Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo). Sit back, buckle up, get ready for the ride . . .

Transforming Publishing for Today's Authors
For those who enjoyed Richard Matheson’s What Dreams May Come comes Nancy Brennan’s Unraveling.
What’s my name? She can’t remember. Or how she got to this strange land she has awoken in. Jane Doe, as she comes to be called, can’t remember how she has ended up injured and thirsty. All she knows for sure is that she MUST get home to her children as soon as possible – but how to do that?
She needs to find someone to help her, but the people she meets seem vaguely familiar and yet strangers unconcerned with her increasingly desperate situation. It’s all very confusing. The longer Jane remains in this strange place the worse things become even as she meets more people who in their own way try to help her . . . It feels like her life is unraveling, and she will have to find within her a strength she has not had to access before in order to make it home.
