FBI agent Snow is honing in on the assassin Tista and the organization backing her. As she persues her investigation, Brother Leone – who raised Tista – is realizing Tista is falling apart inside.

It’s a shame this is the last one because I would have liked to know more about how the “sight” is passed down, why it’s passed down, who was the first person to have it, etc. The story felt clipped, as if there was so much more to explore here but, ah well. There’s some great action and it’s really dark and bleak. Not a satisfying ending to such an intriguing world 3 out of 5.

By day, Tista is a college student studying to become a teacher. But by night, she is Sister Militia, The Grim Reaper of New York, a deadly assassin.

While I liked this series so far, it’s one hell of a downer. There’s tons of action and drama but it is violent and dark. Imma go ahead and put in a trigger warning for dead kids. Tista is not mentally well and the imagery conveying that is fantastic. The art easily goes from cute slice of life to gritty and tortured. Also, at least at the end of this volume, a few tropes I was expecting to happen didn’t. I genuinely did not know where this was going to go which makes it intriguing. 3.8 out of 5.
