As the daughter of the galaxy's most infamous terrorists, Imogene Sol has trained her entire life to earn a place in the Federation despite her notorious name. Her drive is all she's got in the shadow of her parents, who were responsible for one of the deadliest attacks in galactic history. While her name makes her a target at the elite Ring Academy on Serta, excellence has kept her alive. Ranked in the top ten of her class, she's ready for her final tests and a chance to prove them all wrong: she belongs.
The Ring Academy's Year Seven Trials are her last chance to earn a reputation that's all her own. But when she's framed for a crime that could not only end her career before it begins, it could also end her life. Forced to investigate in secret, Imogene finds an unlikely ally in her greatest rival, Timaeus Kade. Brilliant, ruthless, and impossible to read, he may be the only person capable of helping her survive the Trials. But as sabotage turns lethal, Imogene realizes the competition isn't the real threat.
Someone wants her eliminated.
Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Red Rising, and Fourth Wing, this new adult space opera delivers high-stakes trials, elite academy rivalries, and slow-burn tension in a dangerous galactic future.
