Summary
"Jyn felt like she was walking through a fun house. Everywhere she turned, images wavered and mutated in trick mirrors, illusions flickered in the heat and sun of the desert. She couldn’t recognize who was friend and who was foe."
Jyn goes undercover in an attempt to find her estranged father, who has suddenly and mysteriously disappeared after developing a powerful chemical weapon for trafficking kingpin Orson Krennic. Looking for answers at Krennic's desert compound, she meets Will, a narco with a worryingly sharp gaze, and learns that everything is not as it seems. She is forced to confront the ghosts of her past, the maze of her present, and the looming specter of her future.
