Fires of Caprica (Tigers of Caprica Book 1) by Mandy O’Dell

I was a physician’s assistant, then I became his experiment. Caprica is hunted. By the tigers that roam her canals at night searching for food and from a fever that leaves no survivors. Until Me. Left with scars and an unusual change to my eyes, I hide myself in the hospital ward, tending to patients that I know will die where I had lived. I am no longer the beautiful girl that haunted the dreams of the Grand Duke, Vane. No matter what he says or how he requests that I return to the palace life where I had grown up as an orphan. But I have caught the attention of another. The Jackal. A thief stealing from the nobles like some hero from a tale of old. With his help, I grow strong enough to walk the canals at night, bringing hope to those who have no access to medicine. There is a force in the dark that neither the Jackal nor the Duke can protect me from. Someone who doesn’t want me to find a cure. Someone who stays hidden in the dark shadows and only shows himself when he is trying to destroy the evidence that the fever can be defeated. That evidence is me. I’m still fighting for my life.
