chips & ink

What you don't know can kill you.

Indigo -- 19 and Japanese -- doesn't know how she came to be on the street in New York City, rolled up in a rug and left to die.  And she doesn't know how her memory was erased or why her body is carpeted in tattoos. All she knows for certain is that assassins are after her and that no place is safe.

And then her tattoos begin coming to life.

In the opening book of the Ring of Fire series, a young girl has escaped from a secretive cult of assassins -- the Chishima -- after stealing their most powerful and ancient weapon, a magical transformative ink that allows the bearer to become any of her tattoos.  Indigo doesn't know what went wrong in her escape plan, but she knows her enemies want the ink, and the only way they can get it is to kill her.
