Book excerpt: Life was good for New Yorker Cindy Ames. Sure, her husband's top secret weapons projects were a little... weird, but at least her career as a gymnastics instructor didn't involve any covert government contracts. Cindy's life was peaceful. That is until she snuck into her husband Jonas' lab after hours. What began as an innocent curiosity catapults her life into an exciting thrill ride, as Cindy accidentally merges with Jonas' prototype nanosuit. Like a teenager stealing her parents' car for the night, Cindy becomes an armored super heroine known as The Silver Ninja or so she thought... She soon discovers that the suit is not at all what it appears to be. As it secretly blurs the line between good and evil, Cindy unknowingly becomes more aggressive, violent and apathetic to the world around her. Cindy becomes her own worst enemy as she plummets into a downward spiral of psychological oblivion. To make matters worse, she must prevent a violent coup d'etat from erupting in New York City. Cindy will have to suit up and fight through an avalanche of futuristic weaponry to stop more innocent lives from being lost. But can she overcome her personal demons before becoming the villain? Will Cindy be able to save herself in time to save her family?
