Heather swore she"d never go back to Aruka after a mission had gone bad. The planet had an archaic view of women and Heather fought against those views, angering one man to the point of whipping her. Unfortunately, Earth has requested she rescue a missing woman on Aruka. She wants to say no, but Storm has already accepted for her, as long as he accompanies her. They hoped it would be a quick in and out assignment, but didn"t expect to run into the man carrying such hatred for her all these years. Now they have to try to finish their mission while evading the man whose only goal is to make Heather pay for her crimes.
