After a year of boredom on Alara, Commodore Van Swann receives a call that makes her blood run cold. An unknown adversary has attacked the Titan Defense Installation. Van leads the battle fleet dispatched to defend Saturn's largest moon. Her wife and Alara's High Queen, Cade Meryan, follows to provide support. Disaster strikes when the fleet is easily decimated. Van and Cade are left scrambling for a way to repel invaders from the Terran system's only defensive outpost.

Tales of an ancient weapon and assistance from a new friend offer hope. Unfortunately, it requires a side trip to Earth, which is now a penal colony for the Alliance's worst offenders.

The long awaited sequel to Destination Alara!
