The Earth Alliance rules 82 worlds, controlling an empire that spans a third of the Milky Way. But when its leaders stray too far from the democratic principles on which it was founded, one colony - one group of daring rebels - will risk everything in order to reclaim their freedom. Before Alex Solovy was a successful interstellar scout, she was building starships and planning for the day when she would fly one she called her own.
