Candice Gilmer

Coreni Mekkans is a journalist. She knows how to find secrets, survive them, and get out clean. She's done it her whole life — including the secret she's carried since birth: that her body refuses cybernetic implants, and she's never known why.
One cold night on a loading dock, a Fraluma warrior who should have killed her decides not to. That decision pulls her into the center of a century-old prophecy she doesn't believe in, including a hidden civilization beneath the ocean, and a truth about her own blood that will change everything.
She never expected the story to be about her.
