Sasha lives on a man-made planet. Her world is controlled by mega-corporations. They control every aspect of life. If you want to have a baby, you have to get permission from the mega corporation you “work” for. If they don’t give it, you don’t dare to have a baby. Sasha is a freelance assassin. She had surgery to remove her emotions. It made it much easier for her to kill. She is working her way to getting the promotion “Killer of Distinction.” Will she get it? She discovers that she is next on the chopping block so she decides she will take care of not being killed. However, Sasha discovers that she gets an unexpected surprise from her teacher/mentor. Will she like it? It’s a good cyberpunk science fiction novel. It’s a planet that has different rules and language. There is a glossary of the words so if you need a little help with those different words. It’s there. The novel has two chief characters and two entwined stories that make one fascinating novel to read. I enjoyed getting to know and seeing her planet through her eyes. I could see scenes clearly. I must admit that I wouldn’t want to live on a planet controlled by any size corporation.
