A killer amongst the stars

When deep-space travel altered the genes of the first interstellar colonists, Earth abandoned them. But some of the colonies survived, and a new civilization of mental and physical "Variants" was established, centered around clusters of space stations known as the outworlds.

Now the unthinkable has happened: a suicide assault has destroyed the life support system of a major waystation. Two unlikely allies have joined forces to investigate the incident: mercenary Ru Gaya and game designer Micah Bello. From the corridors of a derelict station to an outlaw stronghold in uncharted space, the two now follow the trail of an enemy who can twist human minds to his purpose, and whose plans could bring about the collapse of outworld civilization.
