The Conspiracy believes they have an excellent plan to take down Erik and Jia without anyone figuring it out. But what will they unleash to accomplish it? The military makes an offer, but it comes with a very significant risk. How far are Erik, Jia, and Emma willing to go? Will they accept a massive technology upgrade? Erik and Jia want the truth, but will the cost of tens of thousands of civilians caught in the middle be worth it? Two years ago, a small moon in a far-off system was set to be the location of the first intergalactic war between humans and an alien race. It didn't happen. However, something was found that many are willing to kill to keep secret. Now they have killed the wrong people. How many will need to die to keep the truth hidden? He will have vengeance, no matter the cost; she will dig for the truth, no matter the risk.
