Rayne has been fighting for her life for three years against an alien enemy, on a distant planet, with no hope of rescue. When help finally arrives, it becomes a mixed blessing, because something is not right in her head. Psychological trauma, rage, and bitterness are the least of her worries as she fights for control over her mind. If only that were her only problem. The military suspects she's hiding something, they want it for themselves, and they're willing to do anything to get it. After losing everything, they're seeking to take the last thing Rayne has...her freedom.
