Snowburn - E J Frost - Bog

Unleash the monster. Save the girl. Hale Hauser is a Company killer. Perfectly engineered, highly trained, superbly effective. He has everything, and nothing. Kezra Kerryon is a runner on the backwater colony of Kuseros. She'll get anything from A to B, for a price. When Kez hires Hale to help her retrieve a black-market package, Hale is plunged into the maze of strange loyalties and twisted customs of Kuseros' underground gangs. In payment, he takes the one thing only a woman can give him, and finds the one thing he's missing. But Kez has a secret, which will threaten them both. To protect her, Hale must unleash the monster. Can he control the killer inside long enough to discover the truth before it destroys them? Or will he lose everything just as he's found it?
