Now the UFS Phoenix is on the run, led by the young Debogande and his legendary Marine Commander, Major Trace Thakur. Their own Fleet pursues them to the death, fearful of the secrets they may uncover, of how humanity's grand new future is truly a terrifying house of cards.
Because the deals that secured humanity's great and bloody triumphs were done with the devil, and now the devil is demanding her due...
