In a gripping adventure set in the Polity universe, one man seeks vengeance while one woman transforms for power, leading to dire consequences. Thorvald Spear awakens in a hospital, resurrected after dying in a human-alien war a century prior. Reliving his traumatic final moments ignites a fierce desire for revenge against the rogue AI, Penny Royal, which had decimated his rescue team. Now free and dangerous, Penny Royal becomes Spear's target as he vows to hunt it across worlds. Isobel Satomi, once the head of a successful crime syndicate, finds herself in dire need of strength after an attack from rivals. In her quest for power, she makes a deal with Penny Royal, transforming herself into a part-AI. However, this transformation comes with a dark twist, as it triggers a horrifying evolution into a monstrous being. As Spear enlists Isobel's help to track down Penny Royal, he betrays her trust, making him a target of her wrath. As Isobel’s monstrous nature intensifies, her rage threatens to overpower her reason. The stakes are high as Spear races against time to complete his mission before he becomes the hunted.
