None of it was ever supposed to be legal.

Finley Casper was never meant to survive. As an underage orphan conscripted into an experimental unit tasked with studying new breeds of Mutants, she was the perfect disposable asset -- unseen, unprotected, and forgotten by the City.

But she survived. Worse, she turned the Scouts into the Compound's most elite team.

That was her first mistake.

Now, the City wants her gone. Not promoted. Not praised. Erased. Their solution? Appoint a new Commander -- Ari Kai, son of the infamously ruthless Roman Kai -- to make sure Finley disappears quietly.

It might've worked. Should've worked. But three things happened in rapid succession:

• Ari Kai held a secret.

• Finley's best friend became the Surveyor tasked with planning the mission that should've killed her. Or at least, severely maimed her.

• A newborn Dragon -- exactly the creature they were hunting -- bonded to her and refused to leave.

Now the world knows Finley Casper's name.
And they'll never forget it.
