T. C. McCarthy earned a PhD from the University of Georgia. From his time as a patent examiner in complex biotechnology, to his tenure with the CIA, T.C. has spent a great deal of time analysing foreign militaries. In addition to being an expert on advance weapons technologies, he has also won Fulbright and Howard Hughes Biomedical Research Fellowships.
"I killed for the sake of killing.It was my duty."
Catherine is a soldier. Fast, strong, lethal, she is the ultimate in military technology. Bred by scientists, indoctrinated by the government, she and her sisters will win this war, no matter the cost.
And the costs are high. The life span of these genetic soldiers is short, and they become unstable as they age. Then on their eighteenth birthday, when their duty is fulfilled, they are discharged - lined up and shot.
But the truth is, Catherine and her sisters may not be strictly human, but they aren't animals either. Catherine may have only known death, but she dreams of life - and is prepared to pay any price to get it.
