Harm's Way — Colin Greenland

In a teeming Victorian metropolis, a prostitute loses her life...and with that one quick slash of an assassin's blade, a child's fate is forever altered.

Sophie Farthing is a survivor challenged by life with a gloomy and repressive father. Somewhere beyond a forbidden threshold, her destiny awaits--if she has the courage and cunning to find it. For to know her future, Sophie must first pursue the past--and embarks upon an astonishing journey from Earth to the Moon and across cold barbaric Mars in search of the perilous origin of her birth...and into the outstretched wings of what has yet to be.
