In the continuing saga of the Alien Cadets, meet Claire Kindler, a cadet who never made it back to Earth with the others.
The black market for humans began to thrive long before the trial was over. Claire's mentor sold her to a collector and faked her death to pocket the money. Soon after humanity's trial, Claire finally escapes, but she's woefully ignorant of the galaxy. Everyone assumes she is a Rik—whatever that is—and she's faced with suspicion and hostility as she ricochets her way back to Earth.
Sam and Nat cross Claire's path while investigating an alien moon. Will they believe her in time to save her from the actual Rik, who are eager to keep Claire for themselves?
With Akemi, digital and ready to roll, and Shara, a morally gray assassin along for the ride, the race is on to uncover the truth before Claire is dragged back into the shadows.
