Sarah Martinez wakes up in a hospital bed with no memory of the brutal assault that put her there. The fluorescent lights hum above her broken body, but the darkness in her mind is absolute—a void where Saturday night should be.
When the system designed to protect her fails at every turn, Sarah discovers she's not the first victim. She's number forty-three in a pattern of violence that reaches into the highest corridors of power. What begins as one woman's desperate search for justice becomes a revolution that will shake the foundations of corruption itself.
From the streets of Denver to the halls of the United Nations, Sarah transforms from victim to hunter, from survivor to general of an army of the forgotten. But every revelation leads to another level of conspiracy, every victory demands a higher price, and every choice pushes her further from the woman she used to be.
