"J.S. Collyer writes the kind of books I love " - Michael J. Hicks, author of Convergence. In this, the explosive finale to the Orbit Series, find yourself once more blasting off into a world of interplanetary intrigue and danger with Hugo and Webb Kaleb Hugo has been missing for a year. He disappeared without trace or explanation but popular rumour is that he abandoned his position and his family to join the revolutionist group Red Star, aleged to be gathering force in a new colony on Mars and set on a future ruled by a democratically-elected Orbit Alliance and not the militarised Service. Ezekiel Webb, his former crewmate and best friend, has, on the face of it, taken little interest in Hugos fate, rumoured or otherwise. The two men have barely spoken in years and Webb has immersed himself in his new life in the Eclipse Division of the Service. He is captain of his own undercover unit and whilst the Service Commanders don't always approve of his methods, his abilities cannot be questioned. It is these abilities that the Special Commander of the Service, Hugo's mother, now needs to retrieve her youngest son from wherever he has fled to... or wherever he is being held... whether Webb is agreeable or not. Webb will come to discover far more that he ever wanted to know about the new forces moving against the Service, both from without and within, and, invariably ends up getting caught within the eye of the rising storm, not knowing who of those around him he can trust, if anyone. Discovery, betrayal and revelation lie ahead for two men that have journeyed further together than they ever thought they would and will once again learn that survival is a relative term when you turn your back on who you are.
