Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt.

She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to.

Ashes Of The Past by Z_A1317

The elder twin, she has turned herself into a ruthless hunter, eliminating those responsible for her family's destruction. Her fists speak where words fail, and her blade delivers the justice the law never could. Serra Valtore is the ghost in the machine. A hacking genius, she operates from the darkness, feeding Ezra everything she needs-security codes, enemy locations, and clean escape routes. She does not fight with fists, but with data, weaving digital chaos to ensure their enemies fall. Years ago, the Valtore twins had everything-a loving home, a bright future. Until one night changed everything. Their parents, innocent of any crime except standing in the mafia's way, were executed in cold blood. The sisters, barely teenagers, were left broken, forced to watch as the world moved on without justice. But grief did not break them. It rebuilt them. Now, they live for one purpose-to hunt down the mafia responsible and erase them, one by one. Ezra delivers death with precision, while Serra ensures their tracks remain invisible. Each kill brings them closer to the ultimate target-the elusive mafia lord who orchestrated their parents' murder. But the road to vengeance is never simple. Their actions have not gone unnoticed, and someone is watching them closely. Xavvar Blaze, a sharp-witted detective, has begun piecing together the pattern behind the string of mafia deaths. He is determined to uncover the force behind the killings, unaware that the truth will entangle him in a web of deception, fury, and an unexpected connection to the woman he is hunting. The game has begun. The hunt is on. And for Ezra and Serra Valtore, there is no turning back.
