   Summary

   Julie was supposed to be dead, but she'd always been stubborn.

   Brought back to life by the strange little girl with no face and no patience for sore losers, she sets out with one goal in mind: pay back Verso Dessendre for killing her in the first-fucking-place.

   But on the Continent, things are never quite that straightforward. And even the best laid plans can go awry.

   Or: Julie joins Expedition 33. This complicates things.
