Katy, the oldest natural daughter of Robert and Sasha Wraith, has come of age. She is excited about learning the duties of a Station Master from her mother. Can she also learn how to be a hero from her mother?
From the beginning, things seem to conspire against her. People either fear her, or idolize her. Her future is uncertain because they never found the one who was to save her.
At the colony of Tanishaw, Katy meets a young, shy, stuttering, albino man. There is something about him. Something, which draws Katy to him.
In the background, a psychopath watches. He is being held back by a mysterious enemy, but he won't be held for long.
Then the ANS London makes the discovery of the century. A discovery which will lead to Katy's death, because they never found her savior.
Can love save Katy? Can she stand, alone, against her fate?
