Can a former slave girl raised by AI be normal? Telepath Nalani Adar asks herself that question every day since landing her first job on the sentient freighter, Zeus. She’s a self-taught panic attack waiting to happen but with a unique ability she’s not sharing with anyone. When she learns there’s a dead-or-alive bounty on her head placed by her former owner, she must make a choice: leave behind the life she’s built aboard Zeus and flee (her standard operating procedure) or reveal her humiliating past to her crew and make a stand.
