"I need a boarding party that can dance the dance of kings and then rob a rich lady's bank. I want them loaded down with iron and musket and I need someone who can defuse a bomb without blowing up our hostage."

"Sir, aren't we supposed to be the good guys?"

Commander Jayce Hunter and Lieutenant Commander Rebecca Islington may have finally put the pieces of the Ithis mystery together. The disappearance of Argent's crew, sudden attacks by saboteurs and even the suicidal miles-deep expedition by unknown forces beneath the Lethe Deeps planetary defense base might all be related.

Jason Hunter's chosen XO is the only Skywatch officer alive who can turn the situation around, but does she have the strength to stop blaming herself for the Monarch squadron disaster?

Meanwhile, with Sarn heavy armor and ground formations attacking the 14th infantry base and pinning Argent's star wing on the surface of Bayone Three, it is up to none other than Master Chief Petty Officer Duncan Buckmaster to come up with a three-star solution nobody but the Chief of the Battleship could have imagined.

Now, if the only ship in the quadrant could just find her captain...
