''Yesha Chen, Empress of the Moon, thought it was hard to lead a rebellion. Now she must subdue one, but her stolen battle droids have other ideas. To survive, she must choose between the man she loves and the woman she has to become before it is too late.

'Every government on Earth will stop at nothing to seize control of the Moon's lucrative energy supply. Yesha knows she is all that stands between the Moon Folk and a return to slavery. Her people are restless, the Europeans are setting up a base at Plato Crater, and her trusted council may be less than faithful.

'When Jonah, the love of her life, returns with a deal she cannot possibly accept without sacrificing herself or her people, Yesha knows she has to make decisions that will change life on the Moon forever.'

'When Jonah arrives on the Moon, he isn't expecting much. All he wants is to stay out of trouble and start a new life working on the Helium mine at Chang'e Base. He doesn't expect to be swept into the raging undercurrent of the Moon's racial tensions and politics.

'Yesha is desperate to escape her domineering uncle. In a moment of rebellion, she agrees to have dinner with Jonah and his friend. A simple decision that will change her entire life and set her on a collision course with her uncle.

'Unknown to either of them, the head of security, Wang Mei, has plans to enslave the people of the Moon and seize control of the incredible wealth that comes from supplying the world with energy.

'Their lives collide in a perfect storm where no one is safe and freedom is the ultimate prize.' (Production summary)
