About the book: 2021 / A crisis reigns in a dying planetary system. The sun is gradually dying out, the planets of the Outer Rim are becoming uninhabitable, and space is filled with refugees who hope to find refuge in a foreign land. The mercenary Asala Siku herself comes from such a planet and is used to taking care only of herself. But the mission to save the Vela refugee ship turns out that now Asala will have to decide - no less - who deserves to survive in a dying world, where it is not so easy to distinguish between good and evil.
