Hon var åtta år när ljuset tog honom.
På den mongoliska stäppen såg Tuya sin farbror Bold försvinna i en bländande blixt över himlen. Ingen trodde henne. Inte myndigheterna. Inte hennes far, som dränkte sin sorg i tystnad och vodka och lät det som återstod av deras familj falla sönder.
Arton år senare söker Tuya fortfarande - efter Bold, efter svar och efter ett sätt att förlåta de människor som slutade leta.
När ett spår av omöjliga ledtrådar leder henne helt bort från jorden, finner Tuya sig strandsatt på Kolonin - en värld där tre utomjordiska civilisationer har byggt sina imperier på ryggen av mänskliga slavar. Någonstans på denna planet är Bolds försvinnande kopplat till en forntida artefakt känd som den Röda tvillingen - en makt så farlig att en kung, en kejsarinna och en prästinna inte kommer att sky för någonting för att kontrollera dess öde.
Nu måste Tuya navigera i en värld av skiftande allianser, begravda hemligheter och en maktkamp som sträcker sig århundraden tillbaka. Varje fraktion vill ha den Röda tvillingen. Varje fraktion har en annan version av sanningen.
Men den svåraste striden utspelar sig inte bland stjärnorna - det är kriget hon har flytt från hela sitt liv.
För fans av Brandon Sanderson, Ernest Cline och Sylvain Neuvel.
