Ren awakens aboard the Star Stream after a brutal injury nearly killed him. The Phoenix Corps thinks he's dead. Asher has vanished with the same Corps that wants to destroy them. Most people would take this chance to disappear forever. Ren chooses the opposite path. He rallies his crew for a desperate final mission. They must locate Asher, rescue Liam from captivity, and break free from the Corps' grip. Two massive armies prepare for war across the cluster. Ren wants nothing more than to run with his friends to safety. The conflict pulls him in anyway. Every decision he makes will determine whether his chosen family survives. The fate of entire worlds hangs in the balance as Ren faces an impossible choice.
