The gun-toting anti-heroine who single-handedly blew up LAX airport - by mistake - is finally judged worthy of release from prison; but she finds that the world really hasn't changed a great deal while she's been inside.

Robert Eversz has written a thrilling sequel to his sharp debut novel, SHOOTING ELVIS.
