    Minra ran through the dark building. She'd been a teenager the last time she was here, but the layout of the place was still clear in her mind. Every inch ...

    Minra looked up in surprise as Carter placed a hand on her shoulder. Empathy wasn't something she'd come to expect from him, but his expression of concern seemed genuine. It ...
