Here’s Oni’s official description of the series:<\/p>\n
The year is 2125, and the all-powerful corporation Overcon uses its robot workers to pour our drinks and dispense our meds, all while rebuilding London\u2019s Central City into a hyper-modern megalopolis bolted together in its own image. But as Overcon prepares to celebrate the first year of its Paradise Loop\u2014a superfast transatlantic train that connects the Central City to New York in under 60 minutes\u2014an unwieldy army of displaced human workers floods the streets with weapons, plotting an attack at the anniversary gala. Enter: Gina Serene, a stressed-out, pill-popping police detective in desperate need of a vacation and her ex-partner turned P.I., Lance Wingman\u2014who are now the only thing standing between Overcon\u2019s skyscraper-sized fist and the worker uprising that threatens to bring Britain’s capital crashing down around them.<\/p>\n
\u201cDESTINATION KILL started life as an image in my mind of a lone, masked builder armed with a pistol, standing on the snow-covered rooftop of St. Paul\u2019s Cathedral in London,\u201d said Palmer in a statement. \u201cThat image really stuck with me, and over time it evolved into this fantastical story of a transatlantic train and a citywide builder-led revolution that I knew I had to make someday. This book is me taking the (long overdue!) step of being in total creative control of my work, which turned out to be one of the best decisions I\u2019ve ever made. I wasn\u2019t consciously thinking about it at the time, but at least part of the reason for doing this was to put something out in the world that represents me and my personality, and I feel like I\u2019ve done that.\u201d<\/p>\n
