Mia Verick grew up on a remote homestead far from civilization. Most young women raised in the Kerrick Confederacy of Aligned Planets go to school. Mia had daily firearms practice, tactical exercises, and pilot training.
She never cared about her life, only about living up to the expectations of her father. His mysterious job often takes him away on missions, leaving her to self-training until the day she can surpass him. Now she will never get the chance.
When a messenger from the city arrives, Mia's not ready for the truth. Her father died under classified circumstances. No one will tell her the truth, leaving her with only one option.
Being raised as the perfect soldier doesn't mean surviving the urban jungle will be easy.
Her plan takes her far from home to the world's largest city. Betrayals push her to an even more surprising place.
The most elite fighter training school in the KCAP is the only place she can earn the influence she needs to learn the truth about her father. Before that, she'll need to survive a private military academy.
Can a girl taught to shoot first and ask questions later learn to operate in a dangerous environment where everyone is friend and foe?
