Two people have died in Valerie's crusade. She knows she must return to Olympus, the capital of the Pantheon, to find her next target. There she may face the one thing she fears in the galaxy, those she turned her back on, the survivors of her family and her Company. Hanna and Deni have promised to aid their friend, but can they survive on a hostile world and prevent Valerie's wanton destruction of Furioso from repeating? The forces of the Pantheon are moving against Valerie and the Rebellion is hunting her. Can she avoid them and get vengeance for her family? All the while, in the darkened corners of the Pantheon, a name is being whispered as a beacon of hope for the Manuals - Battleborn.
