<p>When the treaty&#8217;s architect is assassinated, her protegee, Elleni, a talented renegade and one of the few able to negotiate the Barrier, is forced to take up her mantle.</p>
<p>Now Elleni and a motley crew of allies risk their lives to make the treaty work.</p>
<p>Can they repair their fractured world before the Barrier devours them completely?</p>
