Renata Garver Soto has never understood why humanity surrendered its colony ship to an alien species. The Pod rule from the shadows, control every critical system, and demand only obedience in return for survival. Most people have learned to live with that.
Ren hasn't.
When rumors spread of children vanishing from the ship's tightly monitored corridors, Ren begins asking questions no one else wants answered. Her search for proof ends the same way the rumors do-with her disappearance.
What she uncovers is far worse than kidnapping. The Pod's leader is reshaping human minds, quietly and deliberately, and resistance comes at a terrible cost. With her friends now in danger and no one left she can fully trust, Ren is forced into a game of espionage, deception, and psychological warfare against an enemy that can pry into her very memories.
To free the ship, Ren will have to risk more than her life. She'll have to risk her mind.
