The enemy of my enemy is my friend?

Anwyn knows the old phrase. But does it justify joining forces with Hrithain royalty to rescue someone from the team’s past?

Years ago, a mercenary teammate left and became a spy for the Empire. Now, he’s been captured and imprisoned in one of the galaxy’s most escape-proof prisons.

Or is it?

More than one interested party wants the team to rescue him. Is this a job the mercenaries want to tackle? When Veraz and Shir-ella take off to gather information on their own, it might require help from a frenemy.

Intel from unlikely sources reveals more than a prison break is at stake. Someone wants to take out a Hrithain prince—one with connections to Anwyn.

To make matters worse, there’s a new player in the galactic political game. One who plays rougher than the Hrithain.

Can Anwyn survive the skullduggery to pull off a near-impossible mission? Or will it become a fatal stumbling block for her and the team?
