The Drakkin have exiled the people of Silesia into the void of space on a disabled ship. Determined to find their people and bring them home, Sahara, Jared, and their friends gamble everything on a desperate rescue operation. But nothing can prepare them for the deadly truth. As they track the ship across the system, they discover that a new tyranny has emerged from the shadows--a ruthless paramilitary gang of drug dealers and slave traders known as the Triumvirate. They will destroy anyone--or any world--that stands in the way of their quest to be the dominant power in the galaxy. The stakes have never been higher. The danger has never been greater. And when Sahara and Jared discover that their people have fallen into the Triumvirate's clutches, they must make a terrible choice.
