Some Goodbyes Are More Final Than Others... Jessamyn has survived a
terrifying crash but lost her ship, joining Pavel, Ethan, and
others in the dissenter settlement of Yucca. Now, Chancellor Lucca
Brezhnaya believes Jess is out to destroy the Terran government,
and Lucca will stop at nothing to find Jess. The trail of tellurium
left in the Mars Raiders' wake makes them vulnerable to discovery,
and when Lucca places a spy in their midst, secrets are spilled
that could mean the loss of everything-and everyone-Jess holds
dear.
Jessamyn has escaped Earth with food for her starving world, but
her troubles are just beginning. She must rebuild her life without
Pavel, the Terran whose kiss haunts her. Her success is further
tainted by the loss of her beloved brother. Ethan disabled the
deadly lasers orbiting Mars, but this has created a fervor to
re-open trade with Earth which Jess knows would be disastrous. Add
into the mix a secret which could launch an interplanetary war, and
Jess finds herself at the center of an intrigue where, in order to
save the world she loves, she must defy it.
"A sci-fi novel that soars along with a teenage heroine whose
imperfections help make her believable and endearing." - Kirkus,
starred review When the food supply of Mars' human settlement is
decimated, seventeen-year-old Jessamyn Jaarda, the best pilot Mars
Colonial has ever seen, flies to Earth to raid for food. Earth-Mars
relations couldn't be worse, and her brother is captured during the
raid. Breaking rules of secrecy and no contact, Jess finds an ally
in Pavel, nephew to a government official, but their friendship
only makes more agonizing the choice before her: Save her brother
or save her planet? (378pp.)
