When his sister leaps from a balcony after bullying, a retired assassin returns to kill those responsible.
William built a quiet life for Annie by burying his history as the world's deadliest killer. He left her beneath the roof of a trusted ally, believing distance from his past would keep her safe. That trust collapsed when the ally's jealous daughter made Annie a target of relentless cruelty. The abuse drove Annie to jump from a balcony at her coming-of-age banquet, and William saw every second. The sight destroyed the restraint he had maintained for years. Now the Assassin King resurfaces, and he intends to extract blood for blood from everyone who broke his sister.
