The past isn't the only thing that won't stay dead.
Hiding from his violent history as a revered Void necromancer within the Sparnell Confederation, single father Shane Lawrence has finally built a quiet life. On the freehold planet of Baden he can pour his energy into the only thing that now matters: the safety and upbringing of his precocious son, Jake.
All too soon, the Confederation targets Baden for annexation, confronting Shane once more with his treasonous past. Worse, the invading force is led by none other than Shane's manipulative former mentor, Admiral Kydell.
Shane's every instinct screams to run, to hide Jake even further from Sparnell – but Baden is home. This time he could choose to make a stand and defend the entire planet, not just his son. But that means turning to the very skills he swore he'd leave behind…

To lead others, he must first embrace who he was – and what he must become.
After the Turncoat Armada’s surrender, Void necromancer Shane Lawrence is left with a command he never sought and a fleet without a sanctuary. At risk of retribution from both the planet they tried to conquer and their vengeful former allies, the fleet’s only hope lies with Shane’s ability to find them a new home.
He sets his sights on the uninhabited planet TR-75, but there's a catch: Planet TR-75 is claimed by the planet herself. ‘Janikk,’ the lone surviving soul of an ancient civilization, whispers her name on the winds and commands the wildlife to repel intruders. To secure a future for his fleet, Shane must do more than communicate with the long-dead; he must win the favor of Janikk’s guardian, face the ghosts of his past, and earn the approval of a planet that is anything but empty.

Sometimes the biggest threats are from the closest allies.
Void necromancer Shane Lawrence needs resources for his new fleet to help his people secure the futures once stolen from them. The resurrection network formerly led by his deceased partner, Feels, could provide that aid. But in the fae’s absence, the Phoenix Assembly is under new, enigmatic management, and the organization has morphed into an ominous force that casts shadows over every illicit corner of Baden.
But while Shane tries to build a new future by atoning for his past, Feels is restless and longs for parts of that past. When a chance discovery threatens the very foundation of everything they’ve built together, Shane and his allies are left once more grappling with the aftermath of betrayal. Can Shane rebuild what was lost, or will his efforts for atonement lead only to deeper despair?
