The time has come for desperate measures.Deep in Schlinal Hegemony space lies the planet Tamkailo.

But that is where Sgt. Joe “The Bear” Baerclau and Lucky 13th are headed.Because the Hegemony is not only using Tamkailo as a staging point for their offensive. The planet is one of their biggest armories, holding weapons of war that could wipe out the Accord. It’s up to the 13th to destroy it. Outgunned and outmanned, the very survival of freedom in the galaxy is now in their battle-scarred hands…
