Lavinia Markov and her younger siblings, twins Parker and Persephone, were stuck. They weren't locked or shut out. No. It was worse than that. At the age of 6, Lavinia and her family were kidnapped by a Soviet organization dubbed "Ivankov." They trained in ballet, stealth, and combat for over ten years. And they weren't the only ones. Every day dragged on, never changing. There were rules. There were experiments. And only two friends. Until one day when the Markovs moved. There was hope-finally. Maybe for the rest of their life, they wouldn't be killers. Maybe they could be free. At least, that's what they hoped for when they met Jesse, Grace, and Liam. But it would be foolish for Lavinia to think she could escape the nightmares her handlers, past, and own mind had created-even if she could break free. But she would never know... Unless she tried.
