A young star-pilot maverick and legend-in-the-making continues her
journey to destiny and adventure in master storytellers Sharon Lee and
Steve Miller's phenomenal Liaden universe(R). Theo Waitley discovers the
heroine inside herself as she follows her destiny as an ace starship
pilot and budding leader of a powerful Liaden clan.
Theo Waitley is an ace starship pilot - and pure maverick. Her mom is a
renowned Terran scholar and her birth father is an interstellar
aristocrat in hiding. She still feels like a socially challenged misfit.
But after being selected to train with the best-of-the-best at the pilot
academy, she figures she can leave behind those gawky, misfit days of
teenage angst that made life so complicated before! But for Theo, life
is about to get even MORE complicated - and deadlier still. For even
though she's survived the Academy and become one of the best pilots in
the galaxy, the past is about to blast her with gale-force winds. Theo
can run, but she can't hide. Her destiny as master pilot and leader of
a powerful Liaden clan calls, and there are lots of enemies who will
try to make sure she's quite dead before she has the chance to make an
answer.
