Technology has changed, and so have the powers that use it.
In a futuristic Los Angeles, the world is still recovering from the Great Purge that crashed the global internet and ushered in the digital apocalypse.
Everly Kiltcher is doing all right for herself, working for a burgeoning tech company during the day and hanging with her friends on the weekends. But her comfy life is upended when she finds herself abducted and delivered to a group of cut-throat mercenaries called the Black Falcons. There’s been a bounty placed on her head big enough to draw out every criminal in the city, and the specialized group of soldiers claims to be her protectors, but can people who kill for a living really be trusted?
Everly is more attracted to the brooding, tattooed commander of the group than she’d like to admit. He’s dangerous and rough, so why does her body heat and her breath catch every time he comes close to her?
The rest of the group, comprised of a suave ex-marine, a jock genius, and a non-binary, beauty-queen assassin, welcomes her with open arms. Everly is torn between trusting them and taking matters into her own hands. If they can find out who is hunting her and why, she might actually have a chance of surviving this thing.
But the plot they uncover is bigger than all of them. Millions of lives hang in the balance, and Everly is the key.
