Description
Note: This e-book is no longer being sold on Amazon in this self-published edition. It's been replaced by Real Dangerous Girl (Lincoln Square Books, 2018), which actually includes both this book and the first series book, Real Dangerous Girl. All of the series books now have Lincoln Square editions in both print and electronic format, but these mostly each combine two of the original books into one volume No easy answers. No big international spy secret bank accounts. No superheroes or magic. Just her wits, guts…And a very large gun.Training to be a killer was only the first half of the job. Now Kim has to put her life on the line – not just to get revenge on her crooked ex-boss, but to keep from being killed herself before she can take her first shot. She’s got nobody to help her except Cole, the crippled hitman who’s shown her how to use a gun. And they’re up against not only a crew of murderous security guards – but Kim’s own fears and doubts as well. If she’s going to survive, she’ll have to do things she’s never done before – and become something beyond her wildest nightmares.Noted sf and fantasy author K. W. Jeter takes a new turn in the thriller genre, building on the dark, gritty moods of his previous science fiction and horror novels. Fans of mystery and suspense novels with smart, tough females taking the lead, from A IS FOR ALIBI to THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATOO, will find a lot to like in the new Kim Oh Thriller series.“Real Dangerous Girl grabs you from the first sentence and leaves you wanting more about this wonderful character. Thankfully Kim Oh is giving all of us more . . .”– Dean Wesley Smith, USA Today Bestselling author“Kim Oh hardly seems dangerous – a one-hundred-pound orphan, barely out of her teens, caregiver for her disabled brother – but the people who assume she won’t fight back when they get in her way learn a tough lesson in survival. And some of them don’t survive. Real Dangerous Girl is smart, funny, and cool . . . Kimmie Oh is a heroine to identify with, and to root for.”– Louise Marley, author of The Brahms Deception and Mozart’s Blood“With Kim Oh, we’re treated to a refreshingly original experience: joyriding shotgun alongside a truly irresistible heroine in a world of crime, thrills and mayhem.”– David Sakmyster, author of Crescent Lake and The Pharos Objective“With nods to Mack Bolan, Jonathan Quinn, and Mike Hammer, Kim Oh takes you on a non-stop thrill ride to Hell with no guarantees she’ll ever get back. How far would you go if your life – and the lives of those you love – were at stake?”– Nathan Lowell, author of Half Share and Full Share (Solar Clipper Trader Tales)“Kim Oh’s Real Dangerous Girl should come with a warning label – may cause addiction. It’s fast and fun, and I devoured it like a tub of kettlecorn. More, please.”– Sean Ellis, author of Dark Trinity: Ascendant
