Publisher's Summary

On Jupiter's moon, Callisto, a mysterious Recovery Man kidnaps Rhonda Shindo after he terrorizes and then abandons her brilliant 13-year-old daughter, Talia. While authorities on Callisto search for Rhonda, her employers at the Aleyd Corporation try to gain custody of Talia. Somehow, Callisto authorities realize, she's part of the crime, even though she was left behind.

Meanwhile, Miles Flint is having a crisis of his own. In his murdered mentor's files lies a long-held secret, one that could change his life. His investigation of the secret leads him to the Aleyd Corporation, into the middle of the search for Rhonda Shindo, and to a case that threatens the entire legal system that enables the Earth Alliance to function.

What the critics say

"Rusch has a knack for creating interesting characters and a future that moves and breathes." (The PhiladelphiaWeekly Press)
"Top 10 Greatest Science Fiction Detective Novels of all Time." (io9.com)
"Here's Rusch's genius: She doesn't confine herself to the rules of any one genre. She does world-creation and social criticism like the best sci-fi writers; she creates crime stories that would be best episodes on Law & Order or CSI; and she creates stories of human relationships that rank her with the finest character writers working today." (Orson Scott Card)

NEVER disappoints!

Every book in this series has grabbed my attention IMMEDIATELY, not only due to the incredibly well written novel itself, but the narrator is able to draw you right down into the story, as though you're part of it. I love Miles Flint, he really stands out for me as a truly moral person, no matter how dark his life has the potential to become. I also love that even when I knew what was going to happen next, it was I no way a cliché and it still kept me on edge. I want Jay Snyder to narrate my LIFE! HIs voice is already so rich and warm, but the fact that he ACTUALLY gives each character their own tones and voice, is a rare treasure these days. I can immediately identify which character is speaking before a name is said. I can't think of higher praise and admiration for both author and narrator, I have thoroughly been enjoying learning about each different alien species and the distinct voice patterns and quirks that accompany them. You're both absolutely amazing individuals, keep up the great work!!!!
