She wanted out. Now the whole city wants her dead.

Cerulean Sunset is the last bolt witch--a retired monster hunter content to live out her final days in peace. Until an unexpected knock at her door disturbs a century of deep-forest solitude.

His name is Mitter Terrow. He claims to be a journalist looking for a story, but the silver bullet in his pocket suggests a motive more sinister.

Reluctantly, Sunset agrees to weave Mitter a tale of her first failure: of a killer turned coward, an urban sprawl drowned in rain, and a lost girl in need of help. A story about how a lone Gun Maiden risked everything on a single act of kindness and shook an entire city.

One woman against fate. One gun against an army. And one impossible choice that will change the world forever.
