Four generations ago a generation ship crashed into the sands of Savene. Since then, its survivors have eked out an existence in the planet's hostile desert. Yet, the tech is failing, the sands are encroaching, and people are dying. Rescue is still generations away-if it comes at all.

But Marsa is a survivor.

And an outcast.

Infected with the Chrysalis-a disease that grants its carriers uncanny abilities-she keeps her distance from her dwindling community.

Until an old friend's dying wish sends her and a young boy across Savene's inhospitable sands in search of something Marsa had thought she'd long forgotten.

Hope.
