Mumbai. Three days before the monsoon.
A disgraced female soldier, a runaway heiress, and a jaded arms dealer must trust no one—especially each other—as they hunt a missing hard drive containing the only copy of a blood-borne bioweapon code-named "Xanthe."
Mira – 19, heiress to the Sen-Gupta defense conglomerate. She’s not a hostage. She’s the thief. Three weeks ago, she copied the Xanthe genome from her father’s secret lab. Xanthe doesn’t kill you; it rewrites your platelet DNA so your blood attacks your own organs. One vial in a city’s water supply = civil war in a week. Mira is on the run not from bad guys, but from her father’s private army—and from the guilt of having designed the delivery system. Girls.Guns.and.Blood.2019.480p.WEB-DL.HIN-ENG.x...
The final shot: Mira, alone on the helipad, smoke behind her, facing down three black SUVs. She smiles. It’s the first time she’s ever chosen her own war.
Razor’s hand trembles as he holds out a small lead-lined vial. "This is the decoy," he wheezes. "The real hard drive… Mira has it. But she doesn't know it's set to auto-delete at sunrise unless I input a code." Mumbai
Zara doesn’t argue. But she tosses Mira a second magazine. "That’s eleven minutes. Use the extra minute to run."
A custom-modified IWI Tavor X95 with a smart scope that links to Zara’s retinal implant. It can’t be sold; it can only be fired by her. It’s also the only thing that can punch through the Sen-Gupta security droids’ ceramic plating. Zara calls it "The Divorce." She’s not a hostage
Zara has the detonator. Mira has the code to save Neha. Neha, through the tape, screams: "Didi, do it. Don't let them have it."
