Summary

When a kidnapping hits too close for home for former hit-woman Octavia, she is forced out of retirement and back into the bounty-hunting business. With her former partners unavailable, she recruits her son and his boyfriend to aid and abet her in a semester of murder-based work study, where she'll teach them everything she knows--if she can get them to put down the video games and stop making out long enough to concentrate on the mission.
