Desperate to escape an arranged marriage and the life her high-ranking government official father planned for her, Cat Hunter does the unthinkable. She runs away from her homeland Tellus, disguises herself as a boy, and stows away on air ship Stormdancer. She's ready for life in a new land where the general population isn't poverty stricken and at the mercy of the cruel officials. What she isn't quite ready for is Fox, a mischievous and alluring young crew member aboard the Stormdancer--or discovering that the ship is run by smugglers with dangerous secrets. But Cat has secrets of her own . . . ones that, if she can find the courage to reveal, could spark a revolution that would transform not just the lives of everyone on board the Stormdancer . . . but all of Tellus.
