Major Jack Waco was the best pilot in the SENTI Command. A self-proclaimed loner, he thought he didn't need anything or anyone until he met Major Maggie Wilson, who challenged those preconceptions. Maggie's resemblance to an important person from Jack's past revived memories and feelings within him, sending his head and his heart into turmoil. With a government conspiracy on-hand and large-scale interstellar piracy threatening the very stability of the galaxy, will Jack be able to cope with these newly awakened feelings in time to succeed in bringing the guilty to justice or would he be betrayed by them - far out in a newly-discovered planetary system on the other side of the galaxy?
