Detective Billie McCoy and Sophie Hynes couldn't be more different. Billie upholds the law and fights for justice, while Sophie, a staunch lieutenant in the underground militia, Shadax, stands for everything Billie opposes.They first crossed paths under extraordinary circumstances. Billie infiltrated Shadax to deliver a message to Sophie from her murdered father. Sophie, shocked and distrustful, refused to believe her and turned the detective in as a spy. What followed was a deadly manhunt, with forty militia soldiers on Billie's trail. Regretting her rash decision, Sophie secretly helped Billie escape. After a final, brutal showdown, Billie dismantled Shadax's leadership, forcing the underground organisation to fold. She and Sophie went their separate ways.Until fate threw them back together.

Now he is determined to control her mind.Separated, and each facing life-threatening dangers, fate once again steps in to draw Sophie and Billie together. Billie struggles to fight Crane's torturous experiments. As her situation worsens, she finds herself reluctantly turning to Sophie, the cold-hearted renegade who cares only for herself.
