Cornered by blood and death, Zozes Karbroe realises any path he takes will kill his brother ...

What began as an interstellar rescue mission to a space station becomes a battle for survival. In a last-ditch effort to escape their damaged ship, Zozes Alpha Chief orders Zozes, and his younger brother Kaze, to be neurally linked with an advanced artificial intelligence.

Controversy surrounds their ship's fiery crash landing on the station, the brothers barely escaping only to find High Command demanding answers. Why did the Alpha Chief choose to save their lives over that of the crew and herself? These questions swiftly fade when through the AI's neural link to their minds, the Chief begins to haunt them.

Is the Alpha Chief a revenant within the neural link? Or is she somehow still alive and seizing control of one of the deadliest artificial intelligence technologies in the galaxy – taking the Karbroe brothers along with it?
