Description:<p>The clouds of war continue to darken for humanity as Gregg and his Ranger forces are forced to fight yet another higher order species, the Mok-Tok, and it is obvious they were set up. Worse, the First Among the Chosen has decided not to rescue the Rangers; they will be left to die. </p>
<p>Minu Groves doesn't believe in leaving people to die, though, so she embarks on a rescue mission with her friends and the Kaatan-class ship run by her daughter. Before she can bring the war to a conclusion, though, events outside her control force her to turn aside, adding the Mok-Tok to the list of races who want human blood. </p>
<p>The T'Chillen and the Tanam, two other higher order species, are both close to vendetta with humanity, and both have plans to end humanity for good they are actively putting into action. </p>
<p>And, as if more enemies were needed, the alien Grent are acting in the wings, aiding humanity's enemies, and no one knows what game they are playing - not even the races the Grent are helping. </p>
<p>Beset by enemies on every side, Minu is forced to rely on her friends and her daughter, and only one question remains... will that be enough?</p>
