A dying sun. A ruthless corporation. One impossible ship.
Elara Vance is a rogue pilot just trying to survive the graveyard orbit of the Helios Sector. With the local star slowly dying and OmniCorp holding a brutal, heavily armed monopoly on the system's remaining warmth and synthesized water, Elara's fierce independence is the only thing keeping her alive. She works alone, flies alone, and survives alone.
But a routine scavenging run in a deadly plasma storm changes everything. Elara stumbles upon The Archimedes-a pristine, impossibly sleek derelict vessel of extinct alien origin. When she accidentally triggers its dormant neural helm, she discovers the ship's true purpose: its core is a stellar defibrillator, possessing the exact dark-energy payload required to reignite the dying sun.
Suddenly, Elara is the most hunted woman in the galaxy. OmniCorp's calculating Director Valerius Thorne doesn't want the sun saved; free energy is the death of his corporate empire, and he will burn the outer rim to ash to ensure the alien ship never reaches the inner system.
With a system-wide bounty on her head, Elara is forced to abandon her lone-wolf instincts. She must team up with a guilt-ridden corporate defector and a battle-scarred mechanic to survive. Hunted by a massive dreadnought armada, Elara must master a telepathic alien helm that threatens to shatter her mind, and fly her fractured crew straight into the blistering furnace of a dying star.
She spent her life running from the dark. Now, she is the only one who can reignite the light.
