First Lieutenant June Shoate is the person who approves Garik's move from his one-bedroom apartment to Devon Maye's two-bedroom unit so that the two can "bunk together" when Devon is assigned as Garik's "minder" on his recapture from his first escape from the Tower.

We only meet Lt. Shoate through Devon Maye's conversation with her over his watch. Garik feels he knows her, however, and he appreciates her consideration in arranging to have a bed delivered for Devon's extra bedroom, which previously functioned solely as a home office.

We first meet Lt. Shoate in Book 5 of The Human-Hybrid Project, The Glass Siege.
