Used, some wear on the spine and back cover but no bent pages and no markings 17 year old Stella Ainsley wants just one thing: to go somewhere — anywhere — else. Her home is a floundering spaceship that offers few prospects, having been orbiting an ice-encased Earth for 200 years. When a private ship hires her as a governess, Stella jumps at the chance. The captain of the Rochester, nineteen year old Hugo Fairfax, is notorious throughout the fleet for being a moody recluse and a drunk. But with Stella, he’s kind. But the Rochester harbors secrets: Stella is certain someone is trying to kill Hugo, and the more she discovers, the more questions she has about his role in a conspiracy threatening the fleet.
