Lore van de Oest awoke in an alley to the splash of rain. She was naked, a foot-long gash in her back was still bleeding, and her identity implant was gone. She had been the daughter of one of the world's most powerful families ... and now she was nobody. And she had to hide. Winner of the Nebula Award for best novel, 1996.
