Murder the innocent.
Don't let them see you sweat.
Turner Boone lives a treacherous life under a vengeful warlord who employs Boone's tactical genius for his galactic conquest.
Boone wants out.
As a quintessential planner, he's aiming for the long-game to free himself. But when the warlord assigns him to handle a teenage weapon with elemental powers, all his plans go to hell.
As Boone grows attached to his ward, he realizes they both need to escape. His new plan is a gambit that may make things worse before they get better--if he even lives to execute it.
A dark, character-driven adventure in the far reaches of our galaxy, this novel features epic space battles, biological magic, and the discovery of friendship between two young killers.
May contain content unsuitable for sensitive readers (suicide, torture, murder).
