Summary
Trapped on the ice-planet of Delon, gamer girl Sofi and Ambassador Miguel have discovered that nothing is what it seems, including their friends. On a quest to rescue her brother, Shilo, a boy everyone believes is dead, they must now escape and warn Earth of Delon’s designs on humanity. Except the more they unearth of the planet and Sofi’s past, the more they feel themselves unraveling, as each new revelation has Sofi questioning the very existence of reality.
Meanwhile, back on Earth, Sofi’s mom, Inola, is battling a different kind of unraveling: a political one that could cost lives, positions, and a barely-rebuilt society, should they discover the deal made with the Delonese.
But there’s a secret deeper than all that. One locked away inside Sofi and ticking away with the beginnings, endings, and answers to everything. Including how to save humanity.

Sofi's Top 5 Pros & Cons of Living On an Ice-Planet
If you were to sit down with Sofi Snow and buy her a Boba Tea, and ask about her time on Delon – and more specifically all the pros and cons of living on an ice planet – she’d most likely snort and look away because it’s not something she feels particularly inclined to remember.
So, here is that list:
PRO: Any ice planet that’s traveled through space will have WILD AMOUNTS OF TECHNOLOGY
CON: They’ll most likely use that technology on you
PRO: You can wear a slim-suit!! They’re snug against your skin, super warm, and if you turn on the ghosting function, you can sneak around invisibly
CON: You may want to use the alien restroom before putting on said slim-suit
PRO: There may or may not be a hot Earth ambassador on the planet with you
CON: The hot ambassador might…um, nevermind. There is no con to this
PRO: Hot tea is apparently universal!
CON: Drink up because the rest of the ice-planet’s food is engineered for efficiency, not enjoyment
PRO: The aliens will erase your memory
CON: The aliens will erase your memory
NOW…where’s that 2nd Boba Tea, guys? ;)

Summary
Ever since the Delonese ice-planet arrived eleven years ago, Sofi's dreams have been vivid. Alien. In a system where Earth's corporations rule in place of governments and the humanoid race orbiting the moon are allies, her only constant has been her younger brother, Shilo. As an online gamer, Sofi battles behind the scenes of Earth's Fantasy Fighting arena where Shilo is forced to compete in a mix of real and virtual blood sport. But when a bomb takes out a quarter of the arena, Sofi's the only one who believes Shilo survived. She has dreams of him. And she's convinced he's been taken to the ice-planet.
Except no one but ambassadors are allowed there.
For Miguel, Earth's charming young playboy, the games are of a different sort. As Ambassador to the Delonese, his career has been built on trading secrets and seduction. Until the Fantasy Fight's bomb goes off. Now the tables have turned and he's a target for blackmail. The game is simple: Help the blackmailers, or lose more than anyone can fathom, or Earth can afford.
