    "Computer scientist Althea is ruled by her analytical mind, and aboard the military spacecraft Ananke, her most powerful bond is not with fellow crewmates but with the ship's electronic systems. When Ananke and its mission are threatened by a pair of fugitive terrorists, Althea must defend her beloved ship. The saboteur who is captured- the enigmatic Ivan- may prove to be more dangerous. The silver-tongued criminal has long evaded the authorities' most relentless surveillance while keeping the truth about his motives well hidden. Now, as the ship's systems malfunction and distrust grows among the crew, Althea must penetrate the prisoner's layers of intrigue and deception before all is lost. But when Ivan's true intentions are exposed, it will change Althea forever- if it doesn't kill her first."

    Once Ananke was an experimental military spacecraft. But a rogue computer virus transformed it--her--into something much more: a fully sentient artificial intelligence, with all the power of a god--and all the unstable emotions of a teenager. Althea, the ship's engineer and the last living human aboard, nearly gave her life to save Ananke from dangerous saboteurs, forging a bond as powerful as that between mother and daughter. Now she devotes herself completely to Ananke's care. But teaching a thinking, feeling machine--perhaps the most dangerous force in the galaxy--to be human proves a monumental challenge. When Ananke decides to seek out Matthew Gale, the terrorist she regards as her father, Althea learns that some bonds are stronger than mortal minds can understand--or control. Drawn back toward Earth by the quest, Althea and Ananke will find themselves in the thick of a violent revolution led by Matthew's sister, the charismatic leader Constance, who will stop at nothing to bring down a tyrannical surveillance state. As the currents of past decisions and present desires come into stark collision, a new and fiery future is about to be born
