Sixteen: Bounty Hunter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798244498363)

After the destruction of a bootleg cartel laboratory and the blood it left behind, Sixteen disappears.

She and Trucker flee south into the Mexican interior, hiding among villages that survive by not asking questions. They work. They keep their heads down. For a while, it's enough.

Then someone makes a mistake.

A single act of violence turns a forgotten village into a battlefield and sends word racing outward. Phones ring. Deals are remembered. A powerful man decides that what was lost must be reclaimed. And a professional hunter is released with orders to retrieve what the world believes it owns.

The pursuit that follows is methodical and unforgiving. Roads narrow. Distance collapses. Safe places vanish. Sixteen does not run out of fear, but out of understanding. When hunters are patient, survival becomes temporary.

With her is Trucker, massive, wounded, and loyal beyond reason. Against them are men who do not hesitate, do not miss, and do not care who gets caught in the path of the hunt.

SIXTEEN: BOUNTY HUNTER continues the Sixteen series after Bad Blood, pushing its characters into open pursuit and irreversible consequence. Gritty, cinematic, and unsentimental, it is a story about ownership, inevitability, and what it costs to stay free once the world decides you belong to it.

The righteous are bold as a lion.
The hunted have no such luxury.
