Interplanetary intrigue and romance combine in this electrifying finale to the Consortium Rebellion series.
As the youngest member of her High House, Catarina von Hasenberg is used to being underestimated, but her youth and flighty, bubbly personality mask a clever mind and stubborn determination. Her enemies, blind to her true strength, do not suspect that Cat is a spyโwhich makes her the perfect candidate to go undercover at a rival Houseโs summer retreat to gather intelligence on their recent treachery.
Catโs overprotective older sister reluctantly agrees, but on one condition: Cat cannot go alone. Alexander Sterling, a quiet, gorgeous bodyguard, will accompany her, posing as her lover. After Cat tries, and fails, to ditch Alex, she grudgingly agrees, confident in her ability to manage him. After all, sheโs never found a person she canโt manipulate.
But Alex proves more difficultโand more desirableโthan Cat anticipated. When sheโs attacked and nearly killed, she and Alex are forced to work together to figure out how deep the treason goes. With rumors of widespread assaults on Serenity raging, communications down, and the rest of her family trapped off-planet, Catarina must persuade Alex to return to Earth to expose the truth and finish this deadly battle once and for all.
But Cat canโt explain why sheโs the perfect person to infiltrate hostile territory without revealing secrets sheโd rather keep buried. . . .
