Book description

A fragile armistice is collapsing. And on a mining world no one remembers, a servant girl has just picked up something she was never meant to touch.

Seventeen-year-old Nola Nislei has lived her entire life on Lithos, a brutal mining world in the no-man's-land between two rival empires. Orphaned by war. Raised in servitude. Trained, quietly, to fight.

Then an escape pod falls from the sky. Inside are two bodies, and a silvery medallion that seems to know her before she knows herself.
