After Last of Her Kind, Newearth is a place to start over, offering the human race a second chance on Earth. This time humans are in the minority and the Inter-Alien Alliance rules. Five alien races live together and do business on the planet, but not everyone has humanity's best interest in mind. In the Newearth world, friendship and family are far more than skin deep.
Found guilty of war crimes, Justine Santana, a Human-Android hybrid is shut down. Taug, an alien from Crestar, must eliminate his father’s mistake—a Human-Cresta crossbreed named Derik. When Taug awakens Justine and charges her with the assignment to kill Derik, he never suspects that she might discover the meaning of love and her intrinsic humanity. Her freedom hangs in the balance. Is she a woman—or a weapon?

Cerulean, a Luxonian light being, prayed to an unknown God amid the swirling masses. The tips of his fingers touched steeple style as he appeared in his favorite form: a muscular, middle-aged man with soulful, blue eyes and a determined chin. He sat on a dais facing a massive assembly and squared his shoulders. The crowded, domed hall decorated with stat- ues of long dead but never-to-be-forgotten members of the Inter-Alien Alliance Committee resonated with numerous mur- muring conversations. As his gaze flowed over the squirming court of very-much-alive representatives of six races, Ceru- lean’s mind slipped back to the love of his life, Anne Smith, whom he had buried under a blooming apple tree on Oldearth twenty-three years before.
He closed his eyes to the memory. After a deep breath, he reopened them to face the trial of another woman of interest: Justine Santana, an android and one of the most notorious weapons ever used during the Intergalactic Oskilth War.
After a despairing human remnant abandoned Earth and fled to Lux, Cerulean crafted a resettlement plan for Newearth, but war intervened. Now, after the last war crimes trial, he would finally be free to help humanity resettle on Newearth.
But this trial must come first. After all, Justine was human too....
CHAPTER ONE
All My Sins Remembered
“We have definite...” The Luxonian Supreme Judge in a trim human form and dressed in a dark blue robe, stirred in her seat, “...proof that you assassinated well over a hundred and fifty be- ings on the troop transport called...” She glanced down at a data- pad, “...the Generous Sharon.” She fixed her black-eyed gaze on the lone figure standing on the floating dock with narrowed eyes.
