Rana and Mallory share the dream of a family and a little house in the country, but not too far in the country. What tragedy could cause two people so dedicated to each other to lose each other so completely?

Rana, the quirky, spunky, sometimes annoying trade master for the Andran Company, Charters and Tours, came to them straight out of the painful and tragic loss of her fourth pregnancy through miscarriage. We know she left behind a woman she loved and a pain she couldn't live with. Desperate tells us the how and the why.

This prequel is meant to be read before Ports of Surset, Book Two: Port City.
