Feverishly trying to eradicate memories of her past, Jade Darcy starts a new life for herself on Cablans, a society several light-years away from her native Earth. After her acceptance into the alien society, Jade finds employment as a bouncer at Rix's Place, an alien bar and restaurant. As a guardian of order and justice, Jade leads a great life on Cablans until the unexpected arrival of another human. Jade chooses not to contend with the past she has worked so hard to obliterate. She prefers a terrifying death to return to her Earthling past. And so, Jade takes on the job of launching an attack against the most dangerous group in the galaxy. Her mission is far more than a suicide mission; it has the potential to destroy not only her but the whole galaxy.
