The void of space keeps its promises. The people one trusts rarely do.
First Foundress Seela Atherton is the perfect aristocrat: poised, calculating, and ruthlessly effective at securing her family's dominance in the planet of Concordia's cutthroat political landscape. But beneath the silk dresses and practiced smiles, she's suffocating under the weight of expectations and the guilt of the people she's exploited along the way. The Eridani Regatta, a challenging race across the star system's inner space, is one of Seela's few rebellions, a space where she can answer to physics and no one else. But when her solo qualifying run on her spaceship turns into a lethal cascade of impossible malfunctions, survival in the void becomes a test not only of skill, but of everything she thought she understood about loyalty, class, and control. As the evidence points toward sabotage, she must confront a more terrifying possibility than dying alone in the vacuum of space: that the people closest to her may be the ones she should fear most.
