The Lost Colony. Universal Star League, #5

Lt. Nick Adams has been tasked with discovering the mysterious Zara's identity, as well as the location of her native colony. Zara, a Bug-Eye captive since early childhood, believes her homeworld to have been destroyed, but has no idea of its name or location in space. To a preschool child, it was simply "home." Will Lt. Adams be able to ferret out the information and give Zara the gift of a name and identity? Recognized as the most able analyst the USL academy has ever trained, Nick knows that if he can't accomplish the task, no one can.
