An outlaw crew takes on their most ambitious heist: three star systems, one scattered prize and a warlord's fleet standing in the way. A space opera heist adventure of daring rescues, blackmail gambits and crews punching far above their weight. After learning their greatest enemy was back, Dev and the crew of the SS Mettle have their work cut out for them. Not only do they have to rescue one of their own from the Coalition after they suspect her as a spy, but they have to figure out how to combat a warlord who now possesses one of the most destructive technologies in the known galaxy. But they're only one ship and they're no match for a Warlord's fleet. Traxia determines the best way to stop Abrams is to blackmail the Coalition into helping with the data Nolan was determined to find. The only problem is the data is scattered across three different systems, each with their own challenges. This will be their greatest heist yet.if they can pull it off. ***Warning, this book contains spoilers for INFINITY'S END, Book 9 of the INFINITY'S END series.***Perfect for fans of James S.A. Corey, Craig Alanson and John Scalzi.
