Will she get her chance to become a mercenary?

Or is she trapped in her prominent family’s political intrigues?

Anwyn Owens anticipates joining the mercenary team she has close ties to. All is going well…

Until an attempt on her uncle’s life threatens to derail a diplomatic mission to Morvaise.

Escalating attacks force him to ask the mercenaries to provide security while they investigate a series of threats. To Anwyn’s annoyance, her uncle requests her to join his diplomatic team “one last time.”

Mounting evidence points at the Hrithain representatives, who want Morvaise to join their empire instead of the League. Is that enough to provoke murder? Or are the Hrithain seeking personal vengeance?

Nor can the team rule out an inside job. Who in the League—or worse, from Anwyn’s own planet—wants her and her uncle removed…permanently?

Adding to the confusion, one highly placed member of the Hrithain royal family is paying more attention to Anwyn than she likes.

Will she and the team be able to avert disaster?

Join Anwyn and her friends as she navigates the challenges, complications, and risks of becoming a mercenary.Two interstellar powers might never be the same after messing with the Mercenary’s Apprentice!
