The ability to read minds can get you tied to a bonfire with the match lit.
When quiet, introverted Anna is convinced by her mind-reading community to become a colonist settling a distant planet because her people believe in helping mankind, she reluctantly agrees. After all, she's been taught all she needs to know to stay safe and be helpful. Except nothing taught her what to do when the minds she's reading aren't human.
She figures the years-long trip to the distant planet will give her time to make friends and fall in love. But half-way through the journey a rogue meteor punches through the starship and lands at her feet. And that's just the beginning of her problems, from vague whispers in the night to colonists dying randomly with no discernible cause. But she can't tell anyone what she knows because she doesn't want to end up on that bonfire.
Can a nice girl who just happens to read minds save an entire colony from unknown alien threats? Or will she get them all killed?
