Who controls the future, controls it all...

Ten 'Doc' Low is a medic with a dark past, riding the wastes of the desert moon Factus. She dispenses medicine to the needy and death to those who transgress the laws of the mysterious Seekers. Cursed by otherworldly forces, she remains alone to protect herself and to keep others safe from her curse.

However, when she experiences a terrifying vision of conflict and the deaths of those she once called friends, she is compelled to return to the living to prevent a war. With rebellion brewing and the Accord's grip on the Outer Moons weakening, a sinister tycoon begins buying up all available land. Ten must find allies wherever possible and confront her past to save the future. The cost will be more than she could ever have imagined.

This is a wild, adrenaline-packed, whip-smart story filled with captivating storytelling and shoot-outs, ideal for fans of Becky Chambers' Wayfarers and Alex White's Salvagers.
