2177, twelve-year-old Meriel Hope solo-jumped into Procyon System with a
ship full of dead people. Ten years later, the most powerful interests
in the galaxy aim to kill her for what she might remember.
Murdered
parents and a busted spaceship, that’s what pirates left to Meriel and
the orphans from the Light Speed Merchant Princess. But her past will
not stay buried. While searching for a mythical planet called Home, she
trips alarms that protect the killers…
… and the biggest secret in human history.
Meriel
has only days to untangle the mysteries surrounding her parents’ death
or face her own. What she finds can save the far-star colonies from
extinction, but it makes her a target.
Again.
And this time she won’t escape.
