Freedom comes at a price...
After one too many run-ins with his superiors, TSS Agent Joe Anderson is relegated to the Taran Empire's outer colonies to run undercover surveillance. The assignment seems tedious until Joe makes his way onto a newly leased cargo ship with Captain Iza Sundari.
Unfortunately for Iza, Joe, and the rest of the crew, the ship's former owner wants it back. As they try to stay one step ahead, the crew is forced to walk the fine line between survival and legality, with Joe torn between maintaining his cover and staying true to his oaths as a TSS Agent.
Joe soon learns that life in the outer colonies isn't what he'd been told in the TSS, and powerful players could threaten everything that the Taran Empire holds dear. An ancient, mysterious artifact seems to be at the center of their plans, and it's on board Iza's ship. With dangerous forces closing in, Joe puts his career on the line to protect Iza and her crew in their fight for freedom.
