Fractured. Adrift. But never without an extra pair of fuzzy socks. Mondrian Delacroix never bargained for a one-way ticket to the edge of known space. After her solo courier ship cracks in half mid-flight-and the front half vanishes-she's left adrift among the unforgiving stars. Now she must solve the mystery of how she survived, why her ship broke up in the first place-and why an old flame has suddenly shown up again. Mondrian herself is a puzzle with hidden pieces - a knack for repairs, a mind brimming with secrets, and a heart that beats with a stubborn optimism as vast as the galaxy itself. But to unravel the cosmic enigma that nearly erased her from existence, she'll need more than just a reputation for chaos and a knack for repairs to survive. She'll need to face her own vulnerabilities, confront the echoes of the past, and learn the delicate art of trusting those who extend a helping hand-be they new friends or the one person she swore to forget. In the vast expanse of space, a spark of connection can illuminate the greatest mysteries. A rollicking standalone novel set in the world of the Cooperative Realm.
