She-wolf And Cub By Saintcrow, Lilith

A cyborg assassin opts to savenot takeher target's life, in this post-apocalyptic adventure by the author of Afterwar and the Dante Valentine series.

Her name is unimportant. She is her job: a liquidator. Deep in debt for cyborg modifications, the agent eliminates whatever target she's given. It's a relatively simple jobuntil now. Her latest assignment is to kill a child, and she can't refusebecause refusal means Dismissal, a fate worse than death.

Instead, the operative smuggles her target out of the city, away from his corporate caretakers. But little Geoff is a gifted, genetically engineered, profitable experiment, and everyonebounty hunters, fellow cyborgs, brain-fried cannibals, and other monstersis desperate to get their hands on him.

The agent may be practically indestructible, but she's about to test her limits.

Hell hath no fury like a mother protecting her own...
