"A personality per day keeps the assassins at bay." One of many quotations embossed along the walls of the secretive 'Next You' Intelligence Division Operators academy on Cassius. Every government needs operators and they promise awesome compensation. They can because they normally don't have to pay. Diego Martin goes on a mission for the Interstellar Alliance and holds them accountable for their rewards program in ways they never imagined, in Minus a Conscience, a Next You novel.
In Native Heart and The Relevance of Belief Diego makes a journey from assassin to...something else.
