No one believes a woman can become a ship's navigator in a male-dominated society, but Lissa was going to prove them wrong.

Lissa is excited to arrive at the prestigious University of Flux Navigation, even if she is forced into a lesser program of study just for girls. Other students are jealous of her natural talents and make her social life a living nightmare. A handsome young man expresses interest in her, but his charms and good looks are soon overshadowed by the secrets he keeps.

To prove her genius, Lissa excels in classes, competes in school-wide competitions, and outshines the competition wherever she goes. When an exalted teacher finally recognizes her promise, she must pass a Drujan journeyman's test in order to prove once and for all she is navigator material...especially as a female.

Life at the university may be a trial for Lissa, but things turn from bad to worse upon learning the pirate king is on his way to murder her. She once wronged this cruel man, and the need for revenge burns hot in his heart. Curious creatures call to her from the dust, begging for her help in exchange for theirs, and she badly needs their help.

If she is to graduate and survive the pirates, she'll need all the wits and skills to outsmart everyone who wants her to fail...or worse, die.
