By Heather Robson

When Lucy Krysop's grandfather is violently murdered, she narrowly avoids the same fate by the only means of escape available ... travel to the world of Galena. His death sets into motion a mission that Lucy has trained for since early childhood.Her first concern is survival, but Galena, a world rich in alchemic history, is itself in danger from her home world of Origin, and Lucy may be the only one who can protect it. She doesn't intend to get entangled with the military's Intelligence Office or to become the focus of an alchemic investigation or to find herself a target of the military's Weapons Division, the prying and power-hungry NORA, and a mysterious group of mercenary alchemists known as Tergeo. But things don't always go as planned. Lucy's been trained to investigate, deceive, manipulate, and fight but she isn't sure her abilities will be a match for the alchemists of Galena. She'll need every one of her skills to carry out a mission even she doesn't fully understand with the help of people who don't really trust her or her motives. The fate of an entire world hangs in the balance ...
