"A new series that promises to be just as engrossing [as
Frontlines]...the action just as exciting, the science just as solid,
the tension just as high. I gulped down the first book in a day, and I
am already eager for the next one." --George R. R. Martin
Across the six-planet expanse of the Gaia system, the Earthlike Gretia
struggles to stabilize in the wake of an interplanetary war. Amid an
uneasy alliance to maintain economies, resources, and populations, Aden
Robertson reemerges. After devoting twelve years of his life to the
reviled losing side, with the blood of half a million casualties on his
hands, Aden is looking for a way to move on. He's not the only one.
A naval officer has borne witness to inconceivable attacks on a salvaged
fleet. A sergeant with the occupation forces is treading increasingly
hostile ground. And a young woman, thrust into responsibility as vice
president of her family's raw materials empire, faces a threat she never
anticipated.
Now, on the cusp of an explosive and wide-reaching insurrection, Aden
plunges once again into the brutal life he longed to forget. He's been
on the wrong side of war before. But this time, the new enemy has yet to
reveal themselves...or their dangerous endgame.
