Introduction

Lieutenant Cira Vega wakes up, marooned on the wreckage of a once thriving military station, with no memory of who she is or what happened. What she does know is that she's not alone. Something alien is inside her body. Something that moves and thinks for itself. Maybe for them both. Without memories, she can't be certain that she is who her nameplate says she is. The borders of her personality are blurry.

Is she still herself, still a person, or a very sophisticated puppet? Whatever the answer, Cira won't surrender her humanity without a fight. She's determined to solve the mystery of what happened on Grenadier Station, why an alien intelligence attached itself to her, and what its true intentions are.
