Hornclaw is a sixty-five-year-old female contract killer who is considering
retirement. A fighter who has experienced loss and grief early on in life, she
lives in a state of self-imposed isolation, with just her dog, Deadweight, for
company. While on an assassination job for the 'disease control' company she
works for, Hornclaw makes an uncharacteristic error, causing a sequence of
events that brings her past well and truly into the present. Threatened with
sabotage by a young male upstart and battling new desires and urges when she
least expects them, Hornclaw steels her resolve, demonstrating that no matter
their age, the female of the species is always more deadly than the male.
