LIVES WILL BE LOST. BLOOD WILL BE SHED. HE CANNOT LOSE. Emmett Atwater isn't just leaving Detroit; he's leaving Earth. Why he's been selected as one of ten recruits is a mystery, but with the number of zeroes on his contract, he isn't arguing. Each recruit must earn the right to travel down to a planet they've never heard of to mine a substance called Nyxia that has quietly become the most valuable material in the universe. Every training session is a ruthless competition where friendships are tested and enemies are made. Still, the more time Emmett spends in deep space, the more questions he has: questions about the volatile substance they're hoping to mine, and questions about the true intentions for the recruits. Emmett will face the ultimate choice: win the fortune at any cost, or find a way to fight that won't forever compromise what it means to be human. "[A] FAST-PACED DEEP-SPACE ADVENTURE. I WAS HOOKED FROM PAGE ONE." — Victoria Schwab,#1 New York Times bestselling author
