    Summary

    “About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”

    “Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”

    “Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”

    “Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”

    Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

    Summary

    “I really wish I had met you while still alive,” Caitlyn’s suddenly serious tone brought Vi back from her own thoughts.

    “You keep saying that,” Vi said quietly.

    “I keep meaning it.”

    Another silence fell between them before Vi gained enough courage to speak again. “Well, you have me now. Would it really have been that much better if we had met when we were alive?”

    “Yes.”

    ***

    Vi never really thought about how she would die. She just hoped it would be heroic or at least kind of cool.
    Instead, she dies in a car crash. At the fucking age of twenty-four.

    But Vi isn't the only one who dies that day.

    Caitlyn wasn't ready for death. She still had so much she wanted to accomplish. But it was all cut short in that single moment of impact.

    Now they're both stuck living like ghosts. Unable to let go of their loved ones and move on (and what does 'moving on' even mean?). But perhaps even in loss, something beautiful can be found.

    Summary

    Born 60,000 years ago during the Ice Age, Vi lived a relatively normal life until the age of 25, when her life changed forever. Slowly dying on a snowy mountaintop after their hunting party is attacked, Vi’s life is saved when a strange object from outer-space smashes down to earth, rewriting her fate. From that day forth, Vi would be immune to the ravages of time. She would never age another day.

    Vi would witness countless empires emerge and crumble, survive plagues, revolutions, and wars, and bear the sorrow of seeing everyone she cherished grow old and die. After 60,000 years, Vi’s morality has blurred, and her survival after all this time and fighting in so many wars has turned her into the perfect weapon, yet cold and isolated. Now, in 2025 AD, she spends her immortal life in the shadows as the world’s most elusive contract killer, a ghost hired to balance the scales. But a chance encounter with 24 year old Caitlyn Kiramman, a timid and awkward girl, drags Vi out of the safety she's built for herself in the shadows. Vi must decide whether to follow her heart…or protect it and run before it breaks, like it has so many times before. Can an immortal learn to love again?
