Betray your family. Save your world.
Kara Syung leads a life of privilege and comfort among Hokkaido’s elites. A secure future; a scripted career; an arranged husband. Yet she senses a darkness beneath the glamor and the power. Then Kara’s brother whispers in her ear:
“They’re going to burn it all. Be a soldier.”
His body washes ashore days later, setting Kara on a mission for justice and the truth. Now, she is closer than ever, but powerful forces stand in her way – starting with her own family and others who control the planet’s food supply. She must turn to allies who live in the shadows.
She has few weapons: A lifelong best friend and servant, a murderous immortal on a crusade of his own, a rogue from an old empire, and a snub-nose laser pistol. Moreover, time works against her: She will marry a man she does not love in seven days – whether she wants to or not.
Does Kara have the strength to stand against everyone and everything she was taught to believe in? Will she find justice for her brother or surrender to a dark conspiracy that threatens Hokkaido and beyond?
Begin a journey into worlds of the unexpected as the battleground is set in this opening book of the series Beyond the Impossible.
