"One day, almost two years after being compelled to take a human life, I was suddenly left breathless by the realization of the career I was destined to follow. It was totally unexpected. Though I was grateful for the glimpse into my future, what I saw there left me frustrated: It was not a calling about which I could brag to my friends. Nor had it been my childhood dream. The choice was thrust upon me by a strange and horrifying sequence of events. "Now, I am about to embark on another dangerous mission. Suspecting I might not survive, I am eager to leave behind the story of my metamorphosis from delicate Chinese flower to sharp-clawed tigress." Thus begins the intriguing Chronicles of Madame Woo.
