Diego is convicted of a crime he's not even sure he committed. His sentence: banishment to the monster-infested lower decks of Serenity Orbital. Every day is a struggle-not just to survive but to keep his secret, void-tainted powers from tearing him apart. When more exiled boys arrive, Diego must help Rafe-the one who once made his life a living hell. Trust doesn't come easy, but setting aside old grudges might be the only way to stay alive. As days stretch into years and the wreckage of a dying space station becomes their world, tensions rise, power struggles ignite, and friendship can be deadly. Set before the events of Atom Bomb Baby, this side-story in the Riders of the Stars series delves into the dark secrets that shape the battle for survival on Serenity Station.
