Star Wars : The High Republic : Out of the Shadows

THE DARKEST SECRETS ARE THE HARDEST TO BRING TO LIGHT. . . .Sylvestri Yarrow is having a streak of bad luck with no end in sight. She’s been doing her best to keep the family cargo business going after hermom’s death but between mounting debt and increasing attacks by the Nihil on unsuspecting ships Syl is in danger of losing all she has left of her mother. She heads to the galactic capital of Coruscant for help but gets sidetracked when she’s drawn into a squabble between two of the Republic’s most powerful families over a patch of space on the frontier. Knee-deep in rich people’s problems is the last place Syl wants to be but the promise of a big payoff is enough to keep her interested. . . .Meanwhile Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh has been summoned to Coruscant but with no idea why or by whom. She and her Padawan Imri arrive at the capital—along with Jedi Master Cohmac Vitus and his Padawan Reath—and are asked toassist with the familial dispute on the frontier. But why? What is so important about an empty patch of space? The answer will lead Vernestra to a new understanding of her abilities and take Syl back to the past . . . and to truths that will finally come out of the shadows.
