What's past the breaking point?
Gerhard Wimmer had given up. He knew no one was coming to save him. He knew it was only a matter of time before the ruling elite murdered him. So he settled on a simple, direct plan: take as many of them with him as he could.
But after a kidnapping that isolated from his fellow prisoners, can he keep his resolve and see his plan through? Is that even the right thing to do?
That same question haunts the ruling elite's Lieutenant Colonel Moritz Lehner. Scrambling to make political alliances as his own situation becomes more tenuous, he holds onto his core faith in the party's leadership. Despite how many of them he's had to kill to get this far. If he can't force information out of Wimmer soon, he may see the concentration camps from a whole new angle — the inside.
Owen Payne, stinging from his defeat at the hands of political malcontents in the colonies of Sirius, vows not to give up. Armed with an unshakable conviction but hampered by an executive team intent on appeasement, Payne has to decide how much he's willing to pay for a chance to rescue Wimmer. And the currency might be his own blood.
If you liked The Expanse or Old Man's War,Wayland's Hammer is for you.
