Power, politics, and intergalactic war… Admiral Stone just wanted to retire.
Decades ago, xenophobia and hot-headed decisions nearly destroyed the Sol Alliance. War with the Arcoenum—an alien species with extraordinary mental powers—was both avoidable and inevitable. Humanity survived thanks to the daring actions of a young, brash starship officer: Nick Stone.
Half a century of peace followed, and Stone spent the years reluctantly accepting the endless accolades of a grateful civilization. Now, at 75, he’s ready—desperate—to retire.
Then a distress call shatters his plans:
“S-O-S. All ships and stations. My name is Alice Keller…”
Under pressure from newly elected Alliance President Piers Bragg, Stone embarks on one final mission: rescue the girl stranded on Drake’s World, then sail into a well-earned retirement. But when Alice displays astonishing psychokinetic powers, everything changes. Bragg will stop at nothing to exploit her abilities as he prepares for a war of revenge against what remains of the Arcoenum.
Retirement may have to wait—because the galaxy’s fate is once again in Admiral Stone’s hands.
