Focused on survival, the group must now also make a plan to bring down the tyrannical usurper of the Stell-Ore Mining Company and clear the name of the man framed for murdering the crew of Cartage 15.

Knowing who in the Newverse to trust isn't easy, especially in the middle of a war, and any mistake they make now could cost them their lives. But if they want to see justice done, risking their lives is just the beginning.
