She was lost in the Gitairn Sector. Her commander was believed dead. Her crew missing. Her abandoned hull overrun by creatures never before encountered in known space. She was the spacecraft that once stood between two universes and two species separated by a billion years of history. The captain and officers of DSS Argent risked everything to save her.

Somehow she was returned to service: Crewed and outfitted for a battle that changed human history.

A brutal attack left her dead in space. Acting Commander Toby DeMay and an entire crew of brave men and women gave their lives in the performance of their duty aboard. Captain Patrick Enright won the Medal of Honor trying to save them. But as it turns out Dunkerque may not yet be defeated.

It was the colony massacre that followed a Yersian mercenary attack that finally ripped the mask off the turncoat forces at work inside the Alliance government. Now, a phenomenon no scientist can explain may be the key to stopping a disastrous war before it reaches human worlds. Dunkerque's role in the conflict to come may turn out to be more vital than any other Skywatch warship!

Perhaps Toby and his gallant crew didn't give their lives for nothing.
