Reeda works in the marketplace selling her mother's scarves. Each one is a custom weave and no two are alike. When her friends at the marketplace need her, she comes running and takes care of business when peacekeepers are too far away.
Each intervention requires her to record her use of her assessment talent with the peacekeepers in order to make sure she isn't misusing it. When a Citadel recruiter comes calling, she has to negotiate with Reeda's formidable mother before she will be allowed to leave home.
A nine-foot member of the spider species, l'nal, raised Reeda. Mother has been attentive, protective and an excellent educator. She negotiates the best deal for Reeda and gets her into the Citadel with a tremendous salary and built-in vacations.
Bilro is a Guardian in training on Balen when he meets Reeda, and the moment he takes in the way she studies, he is charmed. When he finds her witty, he is smitten, and when the call summons him to his new post, he is gone.
What are the odds of them meeting again when Reeda goes looking for trouble?
