THE BURN ZONE

Sam Shao has been genetically enhanced to bond with the haan, so when soldiers arrest her guardian for smuggling a dangerous weapon into the country, Sam can sense that something isn't right. One of the abductors is a haan masquerading as a human, and the supposedly fragile haan seems to be anything but. Racing through the city slums, Sam tries to find the man who has been the only father she's ever known. Could he truly have done what he is accused of? The only thing certain is that the weapon is real - and lost somewhere in a city of millions. Fighting the clock, Sam finds an ally in Nix, a haan envoy devoted to coexisting with humans, or so it seems. But what she really needs are answers. Or else everything she knows - and everyone she loves - will burn.

"Between the bonecrack tension, the fertile cascade of ideas, and the neon bright setting, Burn Zone is a hell of a ride." - Richard Kadrey, New York Times bestselling author
