When you’re trapped in space, escape isn’t an option.
Commander Maxine Carmichael and Lieutenant Commander Saqib Vahid of the Near-Earth Orbital Guard are stationed at the Mars Orbital Station (MOS) for a critical mission: overseeing its handover to Martian civilian control. But when extremists launch violent attacks, Max and Saqib are suddenly fighting to survive—and to prevent chaos from erupting across Mars.
Meanwhile, Sylvia Moroz, leader of Free Mars, knows how easily peace can shatter. Facing factions ready to spill blood for Martian independence, she reluctantly turns to NeoG’s Commander D’Arcy Montaglione for help after a near-fatal attempt on her life.
With allies scattered and no way out, can Max and Saqib uncover the attackers’ motives and keep Mars from descending into all-out war? Or will peace be lost forever?
