A spy...
My name is Charlotte Locke, and I'm an analyst for Section 47, a secret
government agency that tracks terrorists, criminals, and other
paramortal bad guys who want to unleash their abilities on an
unsuspecting mortal world. I have a magical form of synesthesia that
senses danger and uncovers lies - making me a stealthy operative.
I'm trudging through another day when one of Section's cleaners -
assassins - takes an interest in me. I don't need my synesthesia to
realize that he is extremely dangerous and that he will do anything to
achieve his goals - even if it means putting me in the line of fire.
...and an assassin
I'm Desmond Percy, one of Section 47's most lethal cleaners. I'm also a
man on a mission, and I need Charlotte Locke's skills to help me keep a
promise, settle a score, and kill some extremely bad people.
Charlotte might not like me, but we're stuck together until my mission
is over. Still, the more time we spend together, the more I'm drawn to
her. But at Section 47, you never know who you can trust - or who might
want you dead.
