The lone survivor of a massacre. The genetically enhanced immortal who spared only him.

A century ago, two human lines nearly wiped each other out rather than acknowledge their shared humanity. When Jesse's mining town is slaughtered under mysterious circumstances, it's clear ancient bigotries linger, and rebels now have access to magic or tech capable of wide-scale genocide. But Jesse only sees the Red Demon fleeing the scene of the crime, a bioengineered immortal who should be protecting the empire, not killing her own.

Jesse sets out on a path for justice. Faruhar, the so-called Red Demon, is not the mastermind Jesse expects. Her fragmented mind is ravaged by guilt over crimes she cannot remember committing, and a code impressed on her by a few kind people she cannot forget.

A fast-paced science fantasy with gritty fight scenes, a spicy romantic subplot, and cozy found family at its heart.
