Story Overview

Jamaican-born Cr has been dragged around the world for years by her mother, who wandered in pursuit of love. When they finally return to their island home, Cr hopes to make a life there. She finds friends, develops relationships, and grows close to her home country. But all of that quickly changes one night with the arrival of her stepfather, David. With Cr's mother supposedly away in Canada, David tries to rape her. With no other option, Cr kills her stepfather.

Revelations and Pursuit

It soon comes to light, however, that David was not who he appeared to be; he is actually a ruthless crime boss, and Cr's friend, Stacy, suspects he may have killed Cr's mother. Now, Cr is on the run from David's murderous brother, Tanny. Tanny does all the dirty work and doesn't mind getting his hands bloody, but Cr has no intention of becoming one of his victims.

Cr's Determination

Instead, she trains to kill. She will be ready when Tanny comes for her—if she doesn't decide to go after him first. She'll do anything to find out what happened to her mother and get her old life back—anything.
