Yakarta
All Amara ever wanted was a normal life. Nose to the grindstone, study hard, land a solid, respectable job and make enough money to live on every merchant's dream world, New Yakarta. But the universe almost never serves up the life we plan on having, and all it takes is one transit ride, a mercenary accountant and an extremely stubborn contract holder to set Amara's life down a path she'd sworn she'd avoid at all costs.
