Beyond This Dark Horizon

Faith Feathergrass saved Iona once. Now she has to do it again. Her plan to secure Iona's independence lies in ruins, and she's stunned when the petition to the Governing Council falls on deaf ears. With the Council's blessing, the Company's "Success Team" is on the way to shake up Iona's social structure, bringing along plots and plans of their own. Worse still, Faith's horrified to learn one team member has a history that casts a heavy shadow over her and Arden, which could threaten to destroy their fragile union. More than ever, Faith's convinced something terrible is coming to Iona--soon. She won't give up. She's still sure there's a connection between the saboteur she defeated and the Company she learned not to trust long ago. Proving that connection could give her the evidence she needs to set Iona free. But not everyone is on her side. As her allies scatter, she realizes wrenching Iona out of the Company's grasp will mean taking the ultimate gamble with a reclusive disgraced biochemist, a snide virtual assistant, and an almost violently organized tea shop owner with a love for loud floral prints, who is (no surprise) not quite what she seems. Will the sacrifice be enough to save Iona for good this time? If Faith succeeds, will it have been worth leaving everything--and everyone--she loves behind?
