About This Book

An aging admiral confronts political panic after a catastrophic defeat and struggles to defend a vital asteroid energy converter whose unique fuel powers the federation. He has invested in small, fast P‑boats and advanced computers under Plan K, but civilian leaders favor negotiation with a rival Combine. To counter the collapse of morale, the admiral abruptly assigns a disciplined commander to take charge of the base under rigid standing orders and secrecy, setting up an imminent test of loyalty, strategy, and the fleet's unconventional tactics as tensions between military necessity and political capitulation escalate.
