As tensions mount between the Triplanetary Confederation and the Lunar Republic, Lieutenant-Captain Daniel Marshall and the Battlecruiser Alamo are sent on a desperate mission of exploration, in a bid to lay claim to strategically critical star systems before Republic forces can forestall them. On its course may lie the answer to the disappearance of Marshall's father, more than a decade ago, at the height of the Interplanetary War. The stakes have never been higher as Alamo and its crew face their greatest challenge yet...
