terrorist attack. Thanks to the Outriders, thousands of lives are saved.

Until they aren't.

Despite the intelligence and the warnings provided by the unit, the

terrorist attack goes off unhindered. What was supposed to be a

triumph becomes a tragedy, and a "mission completed" completely

unravels. And when they learn the reasons why, the Outriders

find themselves tasked with stopping a war before it can ever start.

A dangerously cunning woman who most assuredly should be dead has

seemingly returned. And her plans aren't just devastating, they might
