'Hamilton in peak form' - Kirkus Reviews
To prevent an invasion, she must start a revolution.
Part of the Commonwealth, the planet of Bienvenido is in crisis. They are battling the Fallers, a fearsome alien race who have now infiltrated every level of human society. Nowhere is safe - and no one can be trusted.
Known as the 'Warrior Angel', a mysterious individual is leading a desperate resistance, aided by forbidden technology. Yet the technophobic government obstructs the Angel's efforts at every turn.
As Fallers prepare to attack from the skies, the odds seem impossible on the ground. However, astronaut Ry Evine has made a discovery. It could unlock powerful secrets of the Commonwealth - and prevent their annihilation. But time isn't on humanity's side . . .
The planet Bienvenido has finally escaped the Void. But its citizens are still desperately struggling against the genocidal Fallers - and they could bring humanity to the brink.
