| Summary, Etc. |
Mercy has no place here. On Trinity, a metal world where the privileged live in the skies and the rest fight for water below, you do what you can to survive. 18-year-old Val knows this better than anyone. They've sacrificed everything to provide for their younger sisters. Using their outlawed teleportation powers, they've become the most infamous assassin-for-hire on Trinity, known as the Butcher. No one should be able to trace the Butcher to Val. But when things go horribly wrong on a routine mission and Val's sisters are kidnapped by a gang in retaliation, it means that someone has to know the truth. Desperate and friendless, Val has no one to turn to but their ex-childhood best friend turned vigilante thief. He broke their heart, but he owes them. But as Val fights for the return of their sisters, they start to realize there might be something much bigger at play... something that could upend everything they've ever known about Trinity. Val's journey will take them from a maximum security prison transport to the headquarters of the most powerful gang on Trinity, and all the way to the Gate of Heaven. Each more heavily guarded than the last. Good thing the Butcher has never blinked at an extra casualty.
