Paladin 2: Battleborn (Book 2)
No backup. No escape. No mercy.
Kira came to the massive concrete tower to see a friend rewarded for his long service. She didn’t expect terrorists. She didn’t expect hostages. And she definitely didn’t expect her mentor, an old man who'd once saved her from certain death, to be one of them.
Jace Haven is trapped, held by a ruthless crew that’s turned a community celebration into a killing floor. Planetary security is locked outside by an unbreakable barrier. And time is running out.
Outnumbered, and outgunned, Kira slips into the shadows of the building, using grit, ingenuity, and a lifetime of hard lessons to fight her way through one batch of ruthless mercenaries after another. Every step brings her closer to Jace…and the enemies who will do anything to walk away rich.
They picked the wrong building.
They picked the wrong night.
Because Kira is far more than she appears to be, far more than even she knows. Her body is a living weapon, armed with the most advanced technology of war humanity has ever created.
Explosive, relentless, and packed with white-knuckle tension, this is a science-fiction thriller where the only way out is through—and surrender isn’t an option!
