About this item
Featured on the Lifetime and Netflix TV show You. A Darkly Compelling Debut of an Unusual Bond Between Two Killers - and the Destruction Left in Their Wake. A cold-blooded killer-for-hire, Edison North drifts across America from city to city, crime scene to crime scene, leaving behind a world in flames. But during a seemingly random stop at a fast food restaurant, Edison meets Christian, a young girl who mirrors his own sense of isolation and stink of "other." Though its been a long time since he felt anything resembling a human connection, something about this desperately lonely child calls to him like a fallen nestling. Edison feels certain she deserves better. And while he is not convinced that he can give her that, he can teach her to fly on her own. So he takes her.. Thus begin the chronicles of Edison North - and his protégée. Weaving together past and present, Edison begins Christians strange apprenticeship as Christian looks back upon her fractured upbringing and the training that made her into the killer shes become. What emerges is a savage - and ultimately tender - exploration of the unlikely bond between two outsiders: a fledgling assassin and the man who took her under his wing.
