It's been months since the traumatic and life-altering events on Sulis. Wallace hasn't been the same and Taran has spent her nights in an empty bed. When a stranger offers her the opportunity to pilot the extraordinary Spyridon -- Taran refuses. There's too much emotional turmoil in her life right now and the less complications, the better.
But Wallace has other ideas and seizes the opportunity without her knowledge. He deliberately sacrifices the one thing Taran loves unconditionally -- Eidolon.
Now Taran finds herself captain of a starship that legend paints as haunted. Nothing is as it seems on a ship that appears to have a mind of its own. Forced to accept the consequences before her, Taran will have to put her faith in a man she doesn't trust as she tries to win back the love of the man she does.
