Inferno Squad

by Christie Golden

First published 2017

Inferno Squad receives their most critical assignment yet. The Empire's premier strike team must penetrate the partisan cell that once followed Saw Gerrera. The Death Star plans have been stolen and the battle station destroyed, leaving Imperial forces scrambling to regain control. The partisans continue their violent resistance despite losing their leader, pursuing extremist tactics that threaten Imperial stability. Inferno Squad soldiers must embed themselves deep within enemy ranks to destroy the faction from inside. The mission demands complete deception as they live among rebels who would execute them instantly if their true identities surfaced. Each day brings fresh dangers as the operatives balance maintaining their cover against gathering intelligence for the strike that will eliminate the partisan threat. The squad faces an impossible choice between preserving the Empire they serve and surviving the increasingly perilous undercover operation that could expose them at any moment.
