When Morgan Selwood's ship is stranded in uncharted space, she's grateful to be rescued-until she realises her saviours see her as both weapon and prize. With her enhanced mind and machine-linked abilities, everyone wants to use her.
Autocratic Admiral Ravindra conscripts her to help him face a shadowy threat from the stars, while freedom fighters whisper that she's a legend reborn-destined to help them overthrow tyranny. Morgan doesn't care who's right, until the rebellion turns brutal.
As war and devastation spread, an ancient enemy emerges, intent on wiping out all intelligent life. To save Ravindra, his people, and herself, Morgan must push her bio-engineered intellect to the limit-before the galaxy's future burns away like its past.
