Absolution (Blood Runners, #1)
Description
It's a dog-eat-dog SciFi world of upgrades and bio enhanced Assassins, where a brutal dictator keeps New Chicago separate from the outside world. Marisol is a bounty hunter, tasked with tracking down "Runners," people who have been paid to take the fall for crimes committed by the wealthy. But when she captures a young Runner with a secret, she unknowingly stumbles into a vast conspiracy. The hunter becomes the hunted as those in power turn the city inside out trying to crush anyone who would dare to expose the truth. Nowhere is safe as Assassins close in from every direction. The unlikely duo of Runner and rising-star Hunter must survive the endless onslaught to blow the lid off the rampant, city-wide corruption... or be silenced forever. A bit Logan's run, Running Man, Escape from New York, and even some Ready Player One.
