Durga System

An Alliance prison is no place for a deaf teen girl - but Starla doesn't intend to stick around for long. "Have you been treated well here?" Starla's hands come up short - she was going to sign something rude, but she's cuffed to the table. If these Alliance clowns want answers, they're going to have to uncuff her to let her talk. Because they seem to want to ask her plenty: What was her childhood like on Silk Station? Does she understand her parents are wanted? What does she know about OIC terrorists? But Starla's not saying a thing until she gets an answer to her own question: What happened to my parents? * Starla Dusai is fifteen, deaf - and being held as an enemy combatant by the Indiran Alliance. Willem Jaantzen is a notorious crime lord about to end a fearsome vendetta - and most probably his life. When he learns his goddaughter has been captured by the Alliance, he understands he's her only hope. But saving a girl he barely knows means letting his wife's murderer walk free. Will Jaantzen be able to put aside his anger before Starla's time runs out? STARFALL is the first book in Jessie Kwak's Durga System series, a fast-paced series of gangster sci-fi stories set in a far-future world where humans may have left their home planet to populate the stars, but they haven't managed to leave behind their vices. And that's very good for business.

She thought nothing could come between herself and her new family. She was wrong.

Thrust into an unfamiliar world of crime cartels and union politics, Starla soon realizes Mona is caught up in a dangerous plot - and that saving her might just mean giving up the new family she's come to love.
