"Loa had a secret, and like most things that were hers, she couldn't wait to share it." But life on the mining planet Sekris is not easy.

With her sister locked in underground detention, and corporate abuses increasing, Loa is determined that on this year's Petition Day things will be different. Now all she needs is to get her friends to follow her, to explore a wrecked cargo ship beyond the crater wall, and to investigate strange sounds, from a tunnel she discovered underneath.
