She-Wolf and Cub

A cyborg assassin opts to save-not take-her target's life, in this post-apocalyptic adventure by the author of Afterwar and the Dante Valentine series. Her name is unimportant. She is her job: a liquidator. Deep in debt for cyborg modifications, the agent eliminates whatever target she's given. It's a relatively simple job until now. Her latest assignment is to kill a child, and she can't refuse because refusal means Dismissal, a fate worse than death. Instead, the operative smuggles her target out of the city, away from his corporate caretakers. But little Geoff is a gifted, genetically engineered, profitable experiment, and everyone bounty hunters, fellow cyborgs, brain-fried cannibals, and other monsters is desperate to get their hands on him. The agent may be practically indestructible, but she's about to test her limits. Hell hath no fury like a mother protecting her own . . .
