Synopsis

FOUR SOLDIERS. ONE WAR.

 

Asteroid miner Mary Rodrigo and freighter owner Mattim Abeeb are green draftees of the Society of Humanity, forced to fight for Earth—a planet they’ve never even seen.

What they will risk is nothing less than their lives. For although truth may be the first casualty of war, it’s not going to be the last…
