Darby Trussler, a bartender on a remote space station, once imagined she would do something important with her life. But when an attack reveals that her father's legacy is tied to a dangerous discovery, she is pulled into the middle of a conflict between the Galactic and the Defiance factions - with both sides desperate to control what she unknowingly carries.
