Space, Lies, Syndicate

The kon piset on Harmony Home have always lived in peace, and Speaker for the People has been one of them, even if she seemed… different somehow. They are her family and she would fight to the death to keep them safe. But soon the Others returnâ€"creatures from the old stories and legends, aliens that used to kidnap the People for their own mysterious purposes. Speaker is their next victim, imprisoned aboard their alien craft, being carried away from her home. She must find a way to protect all the kon piset… except, the Others resemble Speaker more than her own family ever had, and they have proof that Speaker is not of the People, but human, like them. Now, faced with the Others’ plans to enslave the kon piset and every other alien planet in what they consider Syndicate Space, Speaker will learn to fight hidden threats and pervasive lies instead of tooth and claw as she battles for a better worldâ€"not just on Harmony Home but throughout human-controlled space.
