For a hundred and fifty thousand years, the alien Shoal have been
hiding a terrible secret behind a facade of power. In the
twenty-fifth century, they dominate the galaxy and control all
trade and exploration, possessing the secret of faster-than-light
travel. Mankind has established just a handful of interstellar
colonies; their freedom and knowledge of the galaxy limited by the
Shoal's punitive colonial charter. Dakota Merrick is a machine-head
pilot on the run from one of the Consortium's most powerful
criminals. Desperate for escape, she contracts to ferry an expert
team to a remote star system. Her passengers hope to scavenge a
functioning FTL-drive from a derelict starship - rumoured to pre
date the Shoal. But they'll expose an ancient genocide the Shoal
will do anything to hide. And Dakota will be forced to face demons
from her own military past. 'Packed with massive concepts and dark
psychological twists . . . seriously entertaining' SFX 'Fast,
confident, daring, skilful ... A big book in scope and imagination'
