Description
Edda Green is a walking time bomb. Three years ago, she lost a hand to an IED outside Kandahar and gained a taste for oxy and extreme violence. Now, she's been released from prison by BKA to infiltrate the revolutionary cell behind the May Day riots in Hamburg. Instead of following orders, she encourages more mayhem to cover her hunt for the people who killed her blood brother. Along the way, she meets the love of her life, a hacker named Indigo. Together, the two outsiders make enemies who don't forgive or forget.
About the Author
Peter Sarda (www.peter-sarda.com) is a third-generation Californian living and working in Hamburg, Germany. His first novel, "Cash-n-Carry," is a coming-of-age story based on his rough-and-tumble upbringing in the murder capital of the Golden State. His crime thriller series, "Hamburg Noir," is set in his adoptive home, a rugged harbor town with lots of old trading money, a "sinful mile" devoted to the world's oldest profession, and a robust and colorful criminal underworld.

"A haunted veteran, a fierce lover, and a savagely effective spy, the titular character of this intense novel is a gritty warrior like few others.... Propelled forward by tense drama and startling twists, this bold and timely thriller is marked by significant character depth, and a story about the rise of virulent movements that needs to be told."
- SPR ( 1/2)
"A gritty and explosive tale of resilience and rebellion set in a vividly drawn urban battleground. Sarda's attention to detail ... draws readers into a noir world where every interaction crackles with danger and consequence."
