In a galaxy where Earth has retreated to a small sphere around Sol, and massive corporations rule the outer stars, just about anything can be bought or sold, including teenage girls. Kari Lorne lived a boring life in a broken-down lab on a run-down planetoid until the Security Corporation decided to eliminate the competition and pick up some slaves. Told by her mother to help her sister, Kari vows to find where she was taken and set her free... but she's got problems of her own... including being converted to a vampire, with a price on her head. Fast-paced space action in a dystopic world where Kari must use every bit of her intelligence, her martial arts training and her leadership skills to survive.
