Publisher's Synopsis
The Riftmaster Ari is on their own, with nothing but their wit, their satchel, and a vow to make it back to Earth. To do that they must stay alive, no matter the cost. With Bailey gone, Ari's life should shift back to normal. But after discovering all that remains of their family and taking the life of their love, Ari feels more alone than ever. Their only company is the strange sickness that fights against their every move, and the starships that seem to creep across the skies of every planet they visit. Starships belonging to the Renohaiin Empire. The Empire's motives are hazy at best, and insidious at worst. As Ari's condition deteriorates, the Renohaiin alone might have a cure. For now, the Riftmaster is alive. But just how far will they go to keep it that way?
