The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

The members of Space Force Fleet Command are renowned for their battle-hardened professionalism...except for one ship-the men and women who crew the ISS Griffin. Yet these misfits, screw-ups, and mutineers are Carmen Grey's only hope at locating and destroying an alien research base concealed aboard a freighter deep behind enemy lines.

The Clairvoyant can fly and read minds, but even she can't imagine the harrowing secrets contained aboard the freighter, which may be the key to stopping a menace poised to sweep across the entire galaxy. She has only a number of days to find the alien ship before it is lost forever.

When the situation grows desperate and when surrounded by enemies, sometimes the most dangerous adversary is the friend watching your back. The clock's ticking.
