The Story: A Killer’s Conscience
Codename 13 (Aurora Ribero) has been raised within the Shadows, a clandestine group of assassins trained to execute missions with ruthless efficiency. Conditioned to suppress emotion and mercy, she is among the organization’s most elite operatives.
But when a botched mission in Japan results in the death of an innocent bystander, 13 is suspended and sent back to Jakarta. There, she meets Monji, an 11-year-old boy whose mother was murdered under suspicious circumstances. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a network of human trafficking and political corruption—one that leads back to Haga, a notorious crime lord with ties to the Shadows.
Betrayal lurks in every corner as 13 is faced with an impossible choice: uphold her deadly oath or defy her masters to protect the boy. But leaving the Shadows comes at a price, and as assassins close in, 13 must embrace her deadliest skills in a battle for survival.
