Step from the shadows into the spotlight . . . no matter the cost.
Atlana lives a second-rate life on a second-rate starship in a second-rate part of the galaxy. Her days consist of paying off her mother's debt on the Cirque Magnifique, from shoveling challa refuse for engine fuel and manning the spotlight for the circus performers. All she wants is to leave her second-rate life behind and use her skills as an illusionist to finally step into the spotlight.
When the Cirque Magnifique is invited to join the prestigious Tour, a massive circus conglomeration, an accident takes out one of the competitors vying for a prime spot. Now Atlanta has one chance to prove she doesn't belong in the shadows. If she wins the competition and earns a spot on The Tour, she can finally pay off her mother's debt and change her life.
But others are willing to do whatever it takes to fill the spot.
Atlanta must decide who to trust and how far she's willing to go to not only step into the spotlight, but punish those who held her back.
Each of the three installments in the SPOTLIGHT Short Story collection build upon each other to form one cohesive whole. Underdogs will rise, secrets will unravel, heists will shape destinies, and villains will emerge from the shadows.
Revenge is always sweeter in the spotlight . . .
