Heinlein's Finches

For many the Patrol is a gateway to a better life. A way to escape the limitation of their birth class, to realise their full potential, and to travel the galaxy. In order to join, cadets must be good. The training will make them better. And only the very best will ever have a chance of joining the teaching staff. Unfortunately, the problem with being outstanding is that it makes you stand out. And when an individual stands out too much, even an established Professor... Well, someone may decide to do something about that. Something terminal. When Gwen and Asher McGee get caught in the cross-hairs, every aspect of their lives is put to the test: their relationships, their loyalties, their beliefs, their dreams, their scars, even their identities. Will they be able to hold on to what really matters? WARNING: Violence, Strong Language, Sexual Content **
