It was just another day at work for the crew of the Shrike: informants to interrogate, criminals to arrest, bounties to collect. What should have been an easy capture turned into an extended chase resulting in both ships crashing on an unexplored planet in a remote system.Now the Agents and the criminals they were pursuing are stranded with little chance of being rescued. They must take sides in a war for control over the world if they have any hope to survive this strange, alien world and the war that threatens to tear the world apart.
