    Summary

    Aila never wanted to spend her life confined to an Alliance ship, but as one of the most renowned medics in the fleet, she has little choice. When a mission to Eden Prime puts her in the path of a wounded turian Spectre, she makes a split-second decision that changes everything—she saves his life.

    Tylus' duty is clear: protect the galaxy, no matter the cost. That means stopping the rogue turians attacking human colonies, even if it puts him in the crosshairs of both his own people and the humans who still see him as the enemy. The last thing he expects is to owe his life to a human.

    Thrown together by war they thought long over, bound by secrets neither of them should know, Aila and Tylus uncover a sinister truth buried deep within the Alliance—one that has already cost countless lives. With both sides hunting them and no one left to trust, the lines between duty and something far more dangerous begin to blur.

    Enemies by circumstance. Partners by necessity. Something more by mistake.
