Allegra is a second-year analyst at a large investment bank. It’s a soul-sucking experience, lived solely for the purpose of being able to cash out into something bigger and more lucrative after time served. But that’s not what Allegra wants.

And a great premise for a sci-fi novel, especially because she returns alone, without her five team members, AND she has no memory at all of what happened. She is the captain of a space vessel […]

We may not like to admit it, but one of us always gets a little more, and one of us gives up a little more readily.
