A stolen artifact of unimaginable power. And a heist that could change everything.

Nadia's world has crumbled. The legendary Ring of Power-once hers and the source of her rule as a mermaid queen in her home world-was shattered by a mysterious force and she found herself in the body of a teenager. Its fragments, scattered across the galaxy, now belong to Silas, a ruthless space pirate bent on domination. Armed with the fragments, Silas inches closer to activating the Starship of Destiny, a legendary weapon capable of unleashing an army of mythical space dragons.

But Nadia refuses to surrender. A year after her crew's last mission ended in betrayal, and only with a few days remaining, she's reuniting her team for one final job: infiltrate an impenetrable stronghold, steal back the fragments, and stop the starship from awakening.

But Nadia soon discovers even getting the team together is much harder than it seems...
