Sixty-six generations into humanity's endless journey through space, Mott Fortress never asked to save humanity-she just wanted to rescue her best friend.
On the generation ship IHC-111, everyone's destiny is predetermined. Mott repairs machinery and follows orders. Her empath abilities should make her valuable, but mostly they just remind her that she's trapped in a life she never chose.
Then one cancelled date leads to an unauthorized adventure. A conspiracy involving clones, royals, and really unhappy droids. Mott and her crew fight to stay alive as they navigate a web of secrets that threatens everything the fleet believes about their mission.
She must choose: stay safe in her predetermined role, or risk everything to ensure humanity's future isn't decided by the elite.
"Out here, beyond the safe confines of the generation ships, nothing was as simple as I'd been taught to believe. While we'd been following our protocols and centuries-old mission, an entire society had evolved out here, one that operated on its own rules, followed its own customs, and created its own peculiar order beyond the margins of our society."
