Resonance

She lost everything. Now, she's fighting back. When Jaya Mill's parents were killed and her brother was kidnapped in an attack on her childhood home, she saw only one future for herself: Enlist in the Union Starfleet and learn to defend herself. Now, as a lieutenant commander aboard the UNS Avalon, Jaya and her elite counter-terrorism unit enlist the help of Tynan Vasuda, an alien scientist from the Szacante Federation, to investigate the potentially sinister research of the new and mysteriously well-funded Sons of Priam. Across the stars, a bounty hunter named Marantos accepts a high-paying assassination job in hopes of putting more distance between herself and her estranged royal family. But that job draws her straight into the web that the Sons of Priam are weaving to capture the highest office of the United Human Nations. As Marantos claws free from the Sons of Priam, her path intersects with Jaya and Tynan, and she must decide whether to keep running from her past or turn and fight this new threat. And as Jaya pushes to uncover the identity of the shadowy figure at the helm of the Sons of Priam, she begins to reveal what truly happened the night she lost her family. What Jaya discovers will challenge everything she knows....

The galaxy is at a breaking point. A resistance is dawning. Captain Jaya Mill and her band of rebels have been on the run for a year, their following growing in the beleaguered outer colonies. But every encounter with the Union Navy leaves them licking their wounds, as the Union amasses a horde of enhanced marines. Tynan rushes to find the key to disrupting the virus that bestows superior abilities to the Union's chosen soldiers, but he fears Jaya will become a casualty of their own weapon. Meanwhile, Mara has returned to her people, attempting to bring some relief to the suffering nareian underclasses even as the empress and her rivals try to draw Mara into their scheming. When a young politician begins to agitate for democracy in the empire, an unlikely alliance begins...but it may be too late to transform Narei without total collapse. And back on Argos, Luka is working undercover to infiltrate the Union Navy, until his identity is revealed. He abandons his life on Argos and searches for Jaya, seeking to unite the two prongs of the resistance. He's not the only one looking for her among the stars. Augustus has a score to settle. But so does Jaya.
