Mara Voss survives the night an alien warlord walks out of an eclipse and burns her world.

She should not have lived. The wreckage says so. The visions say otherwise. Other survivors do not trust her, and she does not trust them. A green-eyed warlord named Vhraen is more than a raid: he is a whisper in her sleep, a forgotten bond, a claim she never agreed to remember.

To end the war she has to follow the signal into his past, through a labyrinth of dead facilities and shifting dark, and find out what claimed meant before the first shot.

An alien-warlord mystery about a woman who lived, a warlord who already knew her name, and a sky that will not stay still.
