Black Lotus. 2, The vow
(Book)

Sequel to: Black Lotus.

It's been months since Kahllah El-Amin hung up her pistols and retired from the murder-for-hire business, leaving behind her days of dealing in death and espionage in favor of a quiet desk job. After so many years of searching, Kahllah has finally found peace. But when a police officer is murdered and a familiar flower is left at the crime scene, all signs point to it being the work of the Black Lotus. Someone is trying to frame her! The case is handed to Detective James Wolf, a former adversary who has since become a friend to Kahllah. His orders are to bring in the Black Lotus, dead or alive. To clear her name, Kahllah once again must don the mask of the Black Lotus. -- adapted from back cover
