✦ Synopsis
From Presumed Dead to Intelligence Agent…
From Espionage to Celebrity…
From Hunter…to Hunted….
StarChild is a quirky, subversive band famed for the slick visual effects in their shows. Citizens from a dozen worlds follow the band almost religiously, a cult of fans. When they’re invited to play on Ile Garoque, a world that severed all contact with Terra two decades ago, Earth Intelligence moves to plant a spy in their entourage.
Enter Anna-Marie Delany and her computer partner, Zenni, a pair known for their skills and prone to danger.
It seems simple enough until Taheera, Starchild’s lead singer, refuses to set foot on the planet, so Anna must use her acting skills and EI’s technology to impersonate Taheera. What she does not expect is falling for Jeb Lucas, StarChild’s drummer and tech-wizard, nor stumbling into a hostile first contact situation with a group of predatory aliens. All of this while her father is ill, longing for Anna to inherit his company and fortune, even though she is missing and assumed dead.
The world could be Anna’s, yet she and Zenni must survive attacks from enemies within EI, capture by the venomous Xha, and a pair of dragon-storms, weird elemental disruptions in non-space that can destroy unwary spacecraft.
