Seven loops have passed since the Terrans attacked Phire Ambrose’s planet, leaving nothing but ash and dust…and her.

Now she is known as the fearsome commander of the Ayros Corps, an interstellar peacekeeping organization that has now become the galaxy’s only hope at defeating the humans’ oncoming darkness. The Corps’ mantra is to bring justice, but all Phire burns for is revenge. Revenge for her family, buried far beneath the rubble of her demolished home. Revenge for her people, still fighting against Terran tyranny. And revenge for herself, and the life she had lost.

When a field mission backfires and fragments of her past come back to haunt her, Phire begins to wonder if the truth about what happened seven loops ago is as simple as it seems. She finds a strange Terran crystal that triggers flashes of a memory…or maybe a vision. It seemed inconsequential at first, but the Terrans are desperate to retrieve it, threatening galactic war if she refuses. But Phire has other plans. Enlisting the help of Phoenix Alavyer, an Avani tech genius, Ethiria Moon, a Loman healer, and Roel Santherin, a figure from her past whom she thought long dead, Phire sets out to steal another crystal from the Terrans’ grasp and uncover the truth behind their invasion. She doesn’t know what the crystals are for just yet, and she’s loath to give the humans one more advantage before she figures out what’s really going on.

But knowledge comes with a heavy price, and the Terrans aren’t the only ones in the galaxy willing to do anything to stop her.
