After everything she has uncovered about Cadmus, KCAP, and the forces operating in the shadows, Mia begins to understand that following orders is not always the same as doing what is right. With her elite training behind her and a growing group of trusted allies around her, she starts operating on her own terms.
The battered Erinyes becomes more than a ship. It becomes the center of a crew willing to follow Mia into situations conventional military forces would never touch. Together, they take dangerous contracts, gather intelligence, improve their weapons, and search for the hidden connections linking Emery Verick's past to the conspiracy surrounding them.
But freedom has a price.
The farther Mia moves outside KCAP control, the more dangerous the enemies hunting her become. Every mission carries new risks, and every victory exposes another layer of the truth.
Mia wanted answers.
Now she has to decide what she is willing to become to get them.
