Trapped in an enemy's mind. Separated from her body. Time running out for everyone she loves.

Lyssa Sykes thought she could negotiate with Camaris—the rogue SAI who's haunted humanity for decades. Instead, she finds herself imprisoned in an endless expanse, while her consciousness severed from her body on Mars 1 Ring

Beyond those confines, Sol spirals toward all-out war.

On Cruithne Station, Cara Sykes faces an impossible mission: penetrate the Marsian blockade around Hilgram Station to rescue her brother Tim—a brother who doesn't remember her, doesn't remember his own name, his mind locked behind enemy conditioning.

Meanwhile, the Anderson Collective uprising is spreading like wildfire across Sol. Senator Folsom's machinations grow darker. And deep within the ruins of Mercury, Camaris has built something terrible—a trap that has already claimed Weapon Born lives.

As Lyssa fights to escape her prison and Emerson desperately seeks help on Cruithne, the Data Hoarders uncover Camaris's secret: a data pipeline that could destroy them all. To save Lyssa, they'll have to follow that connection back to its source and confront the SAI who nearly broke Alexander's council decades ago.

Time is running out. The seeds of war Alexander planted are finally bearing fruit. And the cost of victory may be higher than anyone imagined.

The Sentience Wars continue...
