It's a lifetime job, she's only thirteen, and it's going to make her family unhappy. But after aliens whisk their ship into orbit around a beautiful habitable planet, Trye, her larger community is grateful. The friendship she develops with the alien Ireti almost replaces her family, who refuse to accept her new role. E-5 Danielle entered hibernation with a mission: to protect the New Hope from enemies within. Awoken after the ship's long journey and rescue, she realizes uneasily that predator aliens are easier to understand than this communal, anti-military culture.

Someone would love to sweep the Spacers right off it. And there are Spacers who would do anything to help.
