It's the story of a woman badly disfigured since childhood by a fire who is part of a gang of blackmailers. Her disfigurement is internal as well as external - she is embittered by her scars and has a harsh, predatory approach to life.
A childhood survivor of a fire that killed her parents, Anna bears the facial scars from the tragedy—her lips pulled up to bare her teeth, the skin beneath her left eye drooping to create a ghastly glare—and she has a snarling personality to match.
