Der verheerende Angriff auf den Heimatplaneten des Sternenkönigreichs von Manticore konnte abgewehrt werden, doch die Royal Manticoran Navy erlitt schwere Verluste. Und der unbekannte Feind ist noch lange nicht geschlagen. Jederzeit könnten die Söldnertruppen zurückkehren. Die Offiziere Travis Long und Lisa Donnelly müssen unbedingt mehr über den mysteriösen Auftraggeber der Söldner und seine Pläne herausfinden. Sie haben nicht mit einer Galaxis umspannenden Verschwörung gerechnet.

After the disastrous attack on the Manticoran home system by forces unknown, the Royal Manticoran Navy stands on the brink of collapse. A shadowy enemy with the resources to hurl warships across hundreds of light years seeks to conquer the Star Kingdom for reasons unknown, while forces from within Manticore's own government seek to discredit and weaken the Navy for reasons very much known: their own political gain.

Lieutenant Travis Long of the Royal Manticoran Navy is the sort of person who likes an orderly universe. One where people follow the rules. Unfortunately he lives in the real universe. The good news is that Travis is one of those rare people who may like rules but has a talent for thinking outside them when everything starts coming apart. That talent has stood him - and the Star Kingdom - in good stead in the past, and it's one reason he's now a "mustang" - an ex-enlisted man who's been given a commission.
