Edda Green is a walking time bomb. Three years ago, she lost a hand to an IED outside Kandahar and gained a taste for oxy and extreme violence. Now, she's been released from prison by BKA to infiltrate the revolutionary cell behind the May Day riots in Hamburg. Instead of following orders, she encourages more mayhem to cover her hunt for the people who killed her blood brother. Along the way, she meets the love of her life, a hacker named Indigo. Together, the two outsiders make enemies who don't forgive or forget.
