Known as "Lucky," she takes high-risk jobs for high-tech upgrades (you know, like weaponry, super reflexes, mind reading, etc.) that make her nearly invulnerable. Nearly.</p><p>Juliet is looking forward to some downtime to recover, recoup, and reunite with her mates from the space salvage trawler <i>Kowashi</i>. But after a while, she gets that old itch she can never quite seem to scratch: to infiltrate, and hopefully subvert, the all-powerful WBD megacorporation that created the AI that changed her life-and find out just <i>what</i> the hell she might be becoming.</p><p>To do that, Juliet must assemble a team of expert covert mercs to get her inside WBD's formidable defenses. And to do <i>that</i>, she'll need the help of the last person she'd ever trust: Tanaka-the man who delivered a brutal beating she almost didn't survive back on Titan. No one ever said being a hyper-advanced, cyber-enhanced master spy/thief/warrior was going to be easy . . . </p><p>
