Finally! Long awaited and eagerly anticipated – the grand finale of the thrilling sci-fi trilogy. Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik have narrowly escaped the attack on the Heimdall jump station and now find themselves with 2,000 other refugees on the cargo ship Mao. With access to the wormhole destroyed and supplies running low, their only option is to return to Kerenza – the place they fled from seven months ago due to a hostile invasion. Meanwhile, Asha, Kady's cousin, has survived BeiTech's assault on Kerenza and joined the local resistance. When Rhys, Asha's former love and now a BeiTech soldier, appears, they find themselves on opposing sides. And as the clock ticks down, a final battle begins on the planet and in space. Heroes fall and hearts are broken.
