The enemy is already here. After the encounter with the merciless Ezeroc on Absalom Delta, Grace Gushiken and Nathan Chevell make a run for home. They have a new mission: to warn humanity. Aliens are real. And they are already among us.

The crew of the free trader Tyche are hunted by men in black, fearsome fighters who share the Ezeroc’s powers. When the Tyche lands on Earth the ship’s placed on lockdown. Her crew are scattered and on the run. Without their ship or friends, Grace and Nate have no escape.

The Republic and its military have been corrupted to the core by the Ezeroc. Humanity’s homeworld is at risk. As hope dwindles, Grace and Nate receive an offer they can’t refuse from an unlikely source. The abhorrent espers of the Old Empire might be their only chance to save humanity. Their devil’s bargain: join us, or die.

Out of time and running low on luck, Grace and Nate must gather their scattered crew. Five souls and an old heavy lifter against the might of the Republic and its alien overlords. Will the crew of the Tyche find allies in humanity’s struggle for survival? Or are we doomed to be food for the insects?
