“We found the bones of our families, still smouldering in the rubble of our home.” The survivors of the Okaporo massacre fled to their sister colony, expecting to find sanctuary. What they found was hostility. Kioto was born a memory trader, but her powers are useless without training, and she is now being denied her education. She refuses to live a half-life, but by fulfilling her purpose, she’ll have to betray her sacred heritage. Can she survive, displaced and alone, in a world that seeks to destroy her kind?
