Shield
If Cherry was a selfish witch, she'd keep running. She's an oracle. She KNOWS that trouble is closing in. However, there's an instant in which she could escape, and so could those she loves.
Too bad she's surrounded herself with ridiculously noble allies. The kind of self-sacrificing, kind, clever, and resolute people who force you to love them ... then go off to risk their lives for the greater good. Of course Cherry has to rescue them.
And if she's rescuing those she loves, maybe she could save everyone else along the way?
Aliens, space pirates, scheming politicians (and some good ones - surprise!), Vizards, journalists, AI droids, ... pretty much everyone and everything you need for the draft blurb from an author who is trying to solve the puzzle of how to avoid spoilers for the third and final, unmissable book in The Delphic Dame trilogy.
