The heart of the Hegemony is rotten.

Yri Eriksson is a career soldier for the Hegemony of Midrech, the most powerful military force in her star system. She has never doubted that she is one of the "good guys." She has never questioned her mission to spread the Hegemony's manifest destiny. That is, until her combat unit lands on the surface of a new world and starts butchering innocents in the name of progress. It's all Yri can do to save a handful of the locals from a firing squad of her fellow patriots.

Among the people of this new world is a man imbued with astonishing powers Yri doesn't understand. Will she learn what he is capable of in time, or will she underestimate him until it's too late?

Yri must suddenly make a choice she never saw coming. Will she side with the malignant system that birthed her, or the hopelessly outclassed people whose fate she now holds in her hands?
