Maya Hoshimoto was once the best art thief in the galaxy. Now she just wants to enjoy a quiet life as a graduate student of anthropology. Then an old friend comes to her with a job she can't refuse: find a powerful object that could save an alien species from extinction. Except no one has seen it in living memory, and they aren't the only ones hunting for it. Maya sets out on a breakneck quest through a universe teeming with strange life and ancient ruins. Someone will betray her along the way. Worse yet, in choosing to save one species, she may condemn humanity and Earth itself.
