More about the book

Set in a future where humanity trades live humans for alien technology, the story follows Kara, whose sister was one of the exchanged. Drafted by GalDiv, she joins a diverse team to rescue kidnapped colonists from an uncharted planet. With her skills as an ex-army sniper and the team's pre-cog, Tse, insisting on the importance of artist Marc, they face the daunting challenge of negotiating with aliens despite the lack of communication. The mission's success seems improbable as they navigate this complex and dangerous situation.
