#12 in the Liaden(R) space opera series. Theo, star pilot wannabe and
troubled misfit has been accepted, against all her expectations, to

been selected to train there with the best-of-the-best. Even better -
she can finally leave behind the gawky, misfit days of teenage angst her
previous life so complicated before. Great Liaden star pilots are born
with a bang and not a whimper-and Theo has set a course to graduate from
misfit to genuine maverick.
