Gunpowder Milkshake

In a neon‑slick metropolis that feels both futuristic and timeless, a hidden network of professional killers moves behind the glittering façade of commerce. The city’s underbelly hums with whispered contracts, silent pistols, and a code that binds its most lethal operatives together. Within this world, the atmosphere is a blend of stylized grit and darkly playful swagger, where danger is as much a part of daily rhythm as the sirens that echo through rain‑slick streets.

Sam has grown up under the long shadow of her mother, a legendary assassin whose reputation still echoes in the corridors of the syndicate. Now a seasoned contract killer herself, she navigates the fine line between duty and identity, bearing the weight of a family legacy that is both a badge of honor and a relentless expectation. The relationship with her mother, Scarlet, is a tense mix of admiration, rivalry, and unspoken history, hinting at a bond forged in blood and broken promises.

When an assignment goes awry and an innocent child—Emily—finds herself in the crosshairs of the same ruthless organization, Sam is thrust into a moral crossroads. The crisis forces her to reach back to the past, reuniting with Scarlet and crossing paths with three enigmatic former allies who now run an unassuming library front: Anna May, Madeleine, and Florence. These formidable women, each with a sharp mind and a hidden arsenal, bring a unique blend of intellect and firepower that suggests the stakes are far higher than any single contract.

Together, the unlikely coalition must decide whether to stay within the silent rules of their trade or break them to protect the child caught in the crossfire. Their partnership hints at a thrilling clash of loyalty, skill, and daring, set against a backdrop where every shadow could hide a gun and every quiet moment might erupt into a stylish showdown.
