Sgt Imara Fermo keeps her promise at Bhisho. Though everyone, including herself, was wounded, no one died. And they saved a lot of other lives in the process.
But can she do it again?
The Rhone have not honored their ceasefire. The war rolls on across the planet. Now, the Hospitallers must employ the third tenet of their mission. They must defend a Serdoban city from a Rhone assault.
That's when things go wrong.
Dropships are attacked on their way to the surface. Imara's squad survives, but they're tens of kilometers from where they should be. In fact, they're somewhere in the middle of Rhone held territory. And they're on their own.
Can Imara see her squad safely through their mission? Only time will tell.
