Resettlement (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781038345295)

In the year 2438, eleven-year-old Jesse Darris leaves everything she knows behind-Earth, school, safety-for the alien frontier of a distant planet. Alongside her parents, twin brother, and little sister, Jesse journeys 300 million miles to Migourt, her father lured by dreams of prosperity from legendary Quartz mines. But what they find isn't a boomtown-it's a broken promise: a barren settlement on the edge of survival, where hope is as rare as clean water.
When tragedy strikes and her sister is gravely injured, Jesse's world shatters. Desperate for food and medicine that could save her, her mother makes a heartbreaking decision-selling Jesse into labor at the alien Trianic mines. There, deep beneath the surface of an alien world, Jesse uncovers an extraordinary gift: she alone can withstand the powerful, mind-rattling vibrations of the Trianic crystals, revered by the native Migs.
But power is never simple.
As tensions rise and war brews between the Migs and Earth's encroaching forces, Jesse is thrust into a battle not just for survival-but for identity, purpose, and freedom. With the fate of her family and the planet hanging in the balance, Jesse must choose: stay quiet and safe, or rise and become something more than she ever imagined.
Resettlement is the gripping first novel in the Dragonfly of the Gourts series-a sweeping tale of resilience, discovery, and one girl's quest to find her place in a fractured galaxy.
