Description

In a near-future world where power is traded as ruthlessly as weapons, Pepper—an elite soldier trained to get results—finds her latest mission spiraling into something far more personal than she expected. As she navigates shifting alliances, dangerous technology, and a web of covert agendas, Pepper must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice when the line between duty and survival begins to blur. The novel delivers a fast-paced, high-stakes adventure while exploring themes of loyalty, moral choice, and the cost of obedience in systems designed to control people. With Tobias S. Buckell’s sharp, cinematic storytelling and knack for building tense, character-driven momentum, this standalone entry offers a thrilling ride through a richly imagined science-fiction universe.
