Publisher's Synopsis
Eight-year-old Jos Musey knows little beyond the safe haven of his family aboard the merchant ship Mukudori - until a ruthless pirate destroys his world, slaughtering the adults and enslaving the children. Jos endures a year of terror only to fall into the hands of Earth's alien enemies, far beyond human space. Trained by an inscrutable warrior, Jos becomes weaponized against his own people. Now every new friendship or complicated loyalty might lead to a lethal betrayal, and Jos must choose if he should follow the man who saved him...or save himself.
