The Sanctuary trilogy begins on a space station that serves as a prison for teenagers with dangerous superpowers. Kenzie has trained her whole life to guard these inmates for the corporation Omnistellar, but when an alien threat invades the station, she realizes the prisoners might be her only chance at survival.

The three books escalate from a contained survival horror scenario to a broader conflict involving corporate conspiracies and alien origins. Caryn Lix balances action sequences with questions about who deserves to be locked up and who gets to decide, giving the series more depth than a straightforward sci-fi thriller.
