2174 A.D.
Acquired Genetic Neurological Syndrome has killed much of Earth’s male population, and women have risen to dominate all aspects of life. The Whole Body governs with chilling efficiency; the Ministry of Termination dispatches those who might threaten the world order. To that end, a select few have been engineered to carry out the clandestine orders of the North American Council — K-Class assassins.
At 19, Kay Black is probably the most talented assassin the Ministry of Births has ever produced. Her career is going brilliantly, although she is troubled by odd shifts in consciousness and vaguely unsettling feelings that she can neither control nor fully comprehend.
Then, during an assignment to terminate a renowned scientist with the Central Office for Genetic Research, Kay discovers a mystery about her origins. The information turns her world upside down, and her search for the truth reveals that she has inherited something that makes her even more dangerous than an assassin.
But she is not alone in receiving this unexpected gift, a gift that by its very nature will challenge the foundations of power in the world ... if Kay can survive long enough to use it.

This book was just handed to me by a friend who knows I can't resist a good read. I was not disappointed. It was a good enough page-turner to keep me at it for two days, and left me wishing for more.There's not really any new ground being broken here in terms of the plot, in my opinion. Many other stories came to mind as I was reading. What makes this novel good is the author's talent in drawing the inner lives of the characters, and for his imagination in crafting a compelling dystopian future.
At first, given the setting of this story, I feared this would be a feminist political vehicle, but that's not the case. I found myself at a few turns wishing the author had taken a more imaginative approach with the plot. I started getting a sense of the ending about half-way through, and was disappointed that it ended in such a predictable way.
Three stars is an honest assessment. I've read a lot of science fiction, and a lot of other fiction. This was a good effort, not great. But the potential for greatness is there, and it would be well worth it to keep a look out for this author's next novel.
