Paperback[]
- Mint is the sole survivor of her former crew. Buzz on the street is she sold them out to the NCPD to save herself. Now, badges are after her father’s old crewmate, tech genius who goes by the name Kickdown. To clear her name, she’ll have to toe the line between gangs and the NCPD. And there’s one place where the gangs of Night City gather—where speed settles the score. In a crowd of Animals, Maelstrom, and Tyger Claws gangsters, word travels fast—and that’s all according to plan.[2]

Issue #2[]
- Mint pays an old friend a visit who has something that belongs to her— something made just for her . . . On the tail of an exclusive meet with the long sought-after Kickdown, Mint must play both sides—but to move at full speed, there’s bound to be a crash.[4]
Issue #3[]
- Maelstrom is fired up for the next race and with bodies on the floor, Mint will need Caliber’s attention. With her yaiba[sic] revved up, she’s got a hand to play, but being in cahoots with the NCPD is about to catch up to her... it’ll take more than winning to seal this deal.[5]
