The floodgates have opened.
The stakes have never been higher for operative Elm Caden. Returning from his fateful mission on the Viskr home world, he now knows one thing with absolute certainty. Voice is a true threat to all of humanity, and the Shaeld Hratha are his most powerful weapon.
With the support of new allies Caden sets out to take the fight back to Voice. But as vast Shaeld dreadnoughts pour from the Deep Shadows, and the Imperial Navy is pushed to the brink of collapse, he must now decide whether to remain loyal to his mission or abandon it to pursue a personal vendetta.
And as he uncovers more of Voice's motives, and the identity of the next major target, Elm Caden will also discover a terrible truth: every world has its price.
The first three volumes of R. Curtis Venture's breakout series all pointed to one inescapable conclusion: grave events are happening behind the scenes. In this fourth episode the point is rammed home without compromise or apology, setting the stage for an unsettling cliffhanger and the apocalyptic finale.
