520    Ciaan Gennett isn't green, despite the brand of light hair
       that betrays her heritage: an Earth mother. A mother she 
       remembers but doesn't know, who left one day and never 
       came back. Ciaan's as metal as her home planet--cold and 
       hard and full of so many cracks she's trying to ignore 
       that she doesn't have time to wonder about questions that 
       don't get answers. After one too many run-ins with the law,
       Ciaan finds herself sentenced to probation at a port 
       facility and given an ultimatum: Prove that your potential
       is worth believing in. With help from her best friend 
       Tidoris, Ciaan stays away from trouble--and trouble stays 
       away from her. But when a routine refueling turns into a 
       revelation, Ciaan and Tidoris find themselves forced into 
       an alliance with an Earth captain of questionable morality
       and his stoic, artificially-grown first officer. Their 
       escalating resistance against bureaucratic cover-ups 
       begins unraveling a history of human monstrosity and an 
       ugly truth that Ciaan isn't so sure she wants to discover.
       Now they all must decide how far they are willing to dig 
       into humanity's dark desperation--and what they are 
       willing to do about what digs back.--|cPublisher's
