Mind Worm — S.M. Blooding

Keva and Dottie won the Battle of Red Sky. Kind of. Now Keva's captured and Dottie is fighting to survive in the Black on her own. The team is scattered. Captain Hale Reeve is off working for the Families and keeping to himself. The sentient AI ARO is missing. And the freed military engineered Jays are nowhere to be found. Dottie isn't done fighting, though. They may have destroyed the biological weapons the elite had detonated on Bitter Moon, but now that she knows what she's up against, she knows there are more than lives at stakes. The very basis of what it means to be human is on the line and if the elite are behind this evil, this fight really is hers. The race is on to find Heliac 9, free Keva, locate ARO, and to stop the corporate elite before they bring their plans to the rest of the Four Systems. The people living in the Black won't end up the winners. So Keva, Princess of the Black, will do whatever it takes to save the common citizens of the United Systems. Even if she has to paint the Black red to do it.
