Tara, a telepath of no small ability, awakens in a regeneration tube with no recollection of who she is and where she comes from. The insidious truth behind Tara's amnesia is, she has a secret that makes her worth hunting-and it's far more terrible than anyone could have ever imagined. Tara is taken into Imperial custody as a hunt begins to find out who she was and what is going on. When she takes it on herself to discover the truth, the more she learns, the worse it gets and she is soon on the run again. Tara begins to realize she may not be one of the good guys after all.
