After her father's murder Leera is left all alone in an unforgiving city. The corrupt, broken governing system that rules her planet and the United Federation of Free Systems to which it belongs has left her with no hope of ever getting justice for her father. Filled with rage and seeking vengeance against the government that failed her, Leera turns to the only people she knows will help her: The Insurgency, a secretive group of freedom fighters waging a guerrilla war against the Federation on one side of the galaxy and the titanic-corporation Starlight Incorporated on the other. Will she pass their tests and join their ranks, or will she be cast aside by the only hope she has left?

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.
