Publisher's Synopsis
A relentless tyrant blinded by an obsession, a merciless bounty hunter unwilling to submit to failure, a broken hero struggling with an inner darkness, and two worlds being torn apart by war. Morgan Quinn, born a native of Juniya, had been exposed to the harshness of life at an early age. She narrowly escaped an arranged marriage, bore witness to her best friend being sentenced to death by an oppressive regime, and watched helplessly as her mother abandoned her family in an attempt to satiate her lust for power. Morgan knew all too well the pain of a Juniyan life. But that was only the beginning... Injected with experimental alien technology and serving as a host to a mythical creature in hiding, Morgan finds herself traversing a labyrinth of lies, betrayal, and violence in a bid to protect her people and a benevolent alien race teetering on the verge of extinction. The enemies are gathering on all sides, unlikely alliances are being forged, and the odds are stacked against her. Through her various trials and tribulations, Morgan is haunted by the same unending questions. Will she be strong enough to survive the madness churning within her blood? Will she become the hero the people of Juniya deserve? Can she save an alien species from total annihilation? And the most important question of all...does she have a choice?
