Publisher's summary[]

ETERNALLY YOURS! The trap has been set! DOCTOR APHRA and SANA STARROS are ready to steal the ASCENDANT'S GREATEST TREASURE! But their search for the SPARK ETERNAL will lead them somewhere they never expected…back to the place where Aphra's archaeological adventures began!

Plot summary[]

ASCENSION

The race is on for Ascendant tech!

Rogue archeologist Doctor Aphra and smuggler Sana Starros have been tasked with collecting ancient Ascendant tech by Domina Tagge.
Meanwhile, unknown to Aphra, Domina has revived her nephew, Ronen Tagge, who Aphra almost killed!

Aphra and Starros are on a collision course with their old frenemy Kho Phon Farrus as they attempt to collect Ascendant tech as well,
including the fabled Spark Eternal.

The past always seems to catch up to Aphra…how long can she keep running from it before the chase turns fatal?
