A lone saboteur with a chemical weapon is nothing compared to what someone has planned for Iona now.

The saboteur is gone, but Iona is far from safe. Faith's plan to secure Iona’s independence lies in ruins, and a Company's "Success Team" is on the way to shake up Iona's social structure, bringing along plots and plans of their own. More than ever, Faith’s convinced something terrible is coming to Iona--soon.

She won't give up. She's still sure there's a connection between the saboteur she defeated and the Company she learned not to trust long ago. This time, wrenching Iona out of the Company's grasp will require taking the ultimate gamble with a reclusive disgraced biochemist and may mean leaving everything--and everyone--she loves behind.
