Produktbeschreibung
Working as a historian in one of the premier research museums on her current planet of residence, Jackie gets to see the ancient history of the connected worlds of The District pass in front of her on a daily basis. Not bad for a girl who didn't know magic and the worlds that house it even existed until she was sixteen. When Jackie is charged with transporting a strange tablet, she thinks it'll be a nice, off-world trip with her not-quite-girlfriend, Anaraxis. A mercenary escort certainly adds some weight to the trip. After an encounter with train robbers forces them off in the darkness of the forest, they make an unlikely ally in an injured vampire. When his technically human step-sister arrives, things only get stranger. Now wrapped up in intergenerational family conflict, Jackie learns that the secrets of the District run deep. And those secrets may be chasing her across the connected worlds.
