Abandoned on her 18th birthday by her absent single father, Mako struggles to make ends meet. When her friend offers to introduce her to a sugar daddy for a casual dinner and some conversation, it all seems straightforward and simple. Little does Mako know, someone else has their sights set on her date—a ruthless assassin on a mission to take out his target and leave no witnesses… Before she realizes it, Mako's late-night liaison turns into a deadly encounter with a contract killer, and now, she'll need to think fast, be resourceful, and turn on the charm to survive. Can she melt the heart of a cold-blooded hit man or will this potential beau get the best of her? Find out in this thrilling new black comedy with life-and-death stakes from the author of Searching for My Perfect Brother. (Source: Kodansha USA)
