Kit Mallory has had enough. After the birth of her daughter and the loss of a good friend, she must face the reality that she can no longer roam the galaxy narrowly escaping death. Instead, she does the one thing she thought she would never do. She is going home. Recruiting the help of her mother to deal with the Coalition's ulterior motives turns out to be a bigger mistake than she could have predicted. Not only are Susan's political priorities preventing her from waging a war, they are paralyzing her ability to rescue Kit's sister. When an opportunity arises to disrupt the Coalition's strategy and retrieve Elizandra, Kit risks her freedom to save her sister. Unfortunately, she is unprepared for the upheaval of a political rebellion and must expose the truth about herself to diffuse the outrage of two regimes.
