Two teams of mercenaries. One unproven starship. A dead alien weapon back online. The war with the Malvore has ended but something was left behind. Something deadly.

Peace holds by a growing alliance between ancient enemies the Hrithain Empire and the League but prominent people in both distrust their former enemies.

More than a year after the Malvore surrender, a hidden superweapon at the galaxy's edge starts broadcasting, and only people inside the Empire-League alliance had the access to switch it on. Chendo, Kailin, and Lei lead the Rogues as they team up with Veraz's team taking a brand-new ship called the Nexus to investigate. Their job: find whoever did it. Their problem: the conspirators are their own people.

Renegade Hrithain generals scramble to claim the weapon. League traitors lure the League president's heir into a trap dressed up as a diplomatic tour. On the Nexus itself, one quiet, knife-fast operative will have to decided where his loyalty lies, with his handler or with the Rogues.

Will the Nexus crew locate and stop the traitors in time? Or has the galaxy already bought itself another war?
