"Utterly Satisfying. A sci-fi novel that offers a relentlessly paced, action-packed, and undeniably epic in scope adventure."
- KIRKUS REVIEWS
Sirius Kade thought it would be a simple rendezvous on an alien colony world nine hundred light years from Earth. He was certain no one knew he was coming, or why.
He couldn't have been more wrong.
When his Earth Intelligence Service contact is murdered by a mercenary hit squad, Sirius is launched on a desperate mission to the edge of Mapped Space. He soon finds himself battling for the survival of the Human Race while great alien powers vying for supremacy threaten the foundations of galactic civilization itself.
