Armored against his clever charm, Lexi plans to get in, get the job done, and get out. But when her former crew goes missing in Valovian space, Lexi will have to work with Nilo to figure out what happened--and stop it--before the galaxy's two superpowers can use the disappearance as an excuse to return to war.
This was a really fun reread, As the other ones in the series it has just the right amount of action and tugging at my heartstrings.
This has been a great series, and I like it even more than then first one I read by Mihalik, it's something about how real the found family feels that just really works for me :)
