Esmay Suiza wasn't a member of a great Navy family like the Serranos. She'd had to make her way on grit alone, which meant it wasn't likely she'd ever make admiral and ""hoist her own flag.""

Suddenly she has no choice: she must take command and winand thereby become both the youngest and lowest-ranking member of Fleet ever to win a major battle.

About the Author

Although Esmay Suiza comes from a culture in which women have no opportunity to command, she overcomes her reticence and leads her fleet crew to victory when she s thrust into the crisis of battle. A strong cast, a few special effects, and a sprinkling of background music all add up to an engrossing dramatization of this science fiction story. With a no-nonsense style, Nanette Savard takes charge of the story and keeps it moving at a swift pace. In the role of Esmay, she portrays a steely determination that gives credibility to the burgeoning talents of a reserved young woman who is at a crossroads in her career and personal life.
