AD 2117. There's something nasty up in Puerto Lumina on the moon, and across Earth people are dying; 3,600 carefully co-ordinated deaths a day, every day and twice on Sundays. It's been going on for months. Someone's laying the groundwork for a nightmare that will encompass the entire world. And they need Joe Dredd taken out of the picture. They need a killer. They need the best.

She's the ultimate assassin: born into the horror of the Thai Territories breeding camps and trained with relentless brutality. Then they sliced into her head and they streamlined her mind. She never stops until her designated target is excised. But now, for the first time, she has some ideas on her own.

This is one of the series of full-length, science-fiction novels featuring the well-known 2000 AD comic character: Judge Dredd, lawman of the future, judge, jury and executioner.

Dave Stone claims to be the all-powerful deity. In his corporeal manifestation, between scripting the Brit-Cit Armitage strips for Fleetway and writing such coruscating novels as Judge Dredd: Deathmasques, he experiments incoherently with Super 8 film and there doesn't seem to be any way of stopping him.
