Ashley Fisher was born with extraordinary physical and mental powers. She can move with lightning speed and she can think as fast. She uses her speed combined with martial arts skill to rescue victims of mugging, robbery and kidnapping in Los Angeles and in New York City. She becomes, in turn, a police officer, an assistant DA and a criminal defense attorney.Unlike the vigilante in Death Wish, she acts to assert her prowess, not out of revenge. She disables criminals, not kill them. Ashley is not another Wonder Woman though as beautiful. She, at times, portrays herself as a man and she has faults: extreme naivete, narcissism and obsession with the genetic basis of her prowess.Those she rescues refer to her as "that woman."
