Ensign Nell Sapphi Zika has been working hard to get past her trauma, but the unnerving pleas for help shes hearing in the Verge and the song she cant get out of her head are making that increasingly difficult. As Zumas Ghost gears up for a final run at the Boarding Games, their expert hacker is feeling anything but confident. Plus, her chiefs robot dog, Doge, is acting weirda computer problem she cant find an answer toand the increasing number of missing freighters is putting everyone living on or stationed around Trappist on edge. It doesnt help the NeoGs mission that Dread Treasure is sidelined from competing in the Boarding Games, and Commander DArcy Montaglione is stuck on the front lines of the mystery of the missing ships while also stuck in his own head. Never good at trusting people to begin with, hes struggling to piece together his new crew in the aftermath of a great betrayal, knowing this may be his final chance at command. The last thing he wants to do is prove his enemies right and end up getting shoved behind a desk and forgotten. The easy answer to missing ships is pirates, but DArcy soon realizes the easiest answer is rarely the right one out in the vacuum of space. Whats worse is that the actual pirates are scared of something out beyond the asteroid belt. Something thats been taking their ships too As the unknowns multiply and one of their mysterious enemies escalates by launching an attack on the NeoG itself, the Interceptor crews must brave both cyber and outer space to hunt down their foes, but no one is prepared for the truth that is revealed or the way it will shake the foundations of everything they believe about the universe.
