Jean Johnson's first novel in an explosive new science fiction trilogy set in the world of the national bestselling Theirs Not to Reason Why series—set two-hundred years earlier, at the dawn of the First Salik War…
Born into a political family and gifted with psychic abilities, Jacaranda MacKenzie has served as a border-watcher and even spent time as a representative on the United Planets Council. Now she just wants to spend her days in peace and quiet as a translator—but the universe has other plans…
Humans have long known that they would encounter more alien species, and while those with precognitive abilities agree a terrible war is coming, they do not agree on who will save humanity—a psychic soldier or a politician.
But Jackie is both.
After she is pressured into rejoining the Space Force to forestall the impending calamity, Jackie makes an unsettling discovery. Their new enemy, the Salik, seem to be rather familiar with fighting Humans—as if their war against humanity had already begun…

      Starred review from August 1, 2016

      In this prequel to her military sf series, "Theirs Not To Reason Why," Johnson explores the problems of "first contact" between two species who are both more or less human and must band together to fight an enemy bent on their mutual eradication. The center of the human to human conflict rests with two high-ranking officers from their respective cultures who have forged a little bit too close of a partnership for the comfort of either of their peoples.
