What does it mean to fight for justice? Valerie went to space to make a difference, to form alliances for the Etheric Federation, and to kick some major ass. When she's put up against a massive enemy fleet with only the promise of a legendary weapon lost long ago, she has the chance to do all three. She and her Elites set off to show the galaxy that you don't mess with a vampire in space, but even more so--you don't mess with her friends. Meanwhile, Kalan is right back where he started, in a place he'd hoped to never see again. But his imprisonment leads him and Wearl to a mystery whose answer could help Valerie and the Elites in their fight against the ultimate foe. In this battle, Justice won't come easy. It must be earned.
