From best-selling author duo Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff comes the exciting finale in the trilogy that broke the mould. Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik narrowly escaped with their lives from the attacks on Heimdall station and now find themselves crammed with 2,000 refugees on the container ship Mao.

Hanna Donnelly is the station captain's pampered daughter, and Nik Malikov is the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. Together they struggle with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, blissfully unaware that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall with news of the Kerenza invasion.

Then the evac pods leave without him. Also stranded: Cleo, a sharp-tongued stowaway with no intention of dying today, and even less patience for overconfident trust-fund boys...

Nelle vene di Selly non scorre sangue ma acqua di mare, perciò quando il padre, imbarcatosi un anno addietro, le fa recapitare una lettera in cui le comunica che non tornerà prima di sei mesi e che lei dovrà restare a Kirkpool fino al suo rientro, la delusione e la rabbia prendono il sopravvento.
