Lisa herself is a native of Gaia, but kidnapped by her tribe's murderers and left physically and psychologically scarred. Her adoptive father has trained her as a bounty hunter, and she spends as much of her time as possible hunting pirates as a cathartic release. But when the head of the Federation Intelligence Agency considers her a worthwhile investment for more challenging work, Lisa finds herself forced out of her self-imposed loneliness and routine, and begins to grow both professionally and as a person.

!!Contains the following tropes:
*AlienInvasion: Albeit having taken place in the distant past. Nonetheless, the Fey infiltration, and the subsequent Purge and Recivilization, continues to hold a dominant influence on humanity and the Federation even a thousand years later.
*ImpossiblyDeliciousFood: A thousand years is plenty of time for the residents of the planet Lone Star to really work on their barbecue game. And for the people of Kunlun to make amazing ice cream. And for the workers of Golden Rule to develop an entire cuisine based around the stuff growing in the tanks of plankton that provide the oxygen they breath. But the grand prize goes to the kitchen staff of the royal palace of Furcadia, who do things with chocolate that teaches Lisa the true meaning of the expression "royal treatment."

Lone Huntress is a novel by Andrew Miller, set a thousand years after the "Recivilization" of the twenty first century, when humanity learned of the existence of decidedly hostile aliens bent on conquest via subterfuge, working through collaborators - the assorted governments of the developed nations. After truly epic levels of bloodletting, humans proceeded to explode onto the galaxy, colonizing worlds and developing a thoroughly paranoid and ostensibly libertarian Federation, complete with agencies specifically focused on providing oversight of government leaders, with additional oversight of said agencies for good measure. Different worlds settled by different groups gave rise to some markedly unique cultures, and one particular world - Gaia - is home to a hunter-gatherer society of well educated tree dwellers.
Lisa herself is a native of Gaia, but kidnapped by her tribe's murderers and left physically and psychologically scarred. Her adoptive father has trained her as a bounty hunter, and she spends as much of her time as possible hunting pirates as a cathartic release. But when the head of the Federation Intelligence Agency considers her a worthwhile investment for more challenging work, Lisa finds herself forced out of her self-imposed loneliness and routine, and begins to grow both professionally and as a person.
