The far future, out in the depths of the cosmos. Commander Drake leads a team for very specialist operations — assisted by heavyweapons agent Warsaw, tech expert Elton, twin gunners Tevyr and Jiago, and the silent and deadly assassin Shadow, she takes her orders extremely seriously, and faces the most dangerous of enemies. The members of her squad have come from planets all over the galaxy, and often from different eras. But just who is responsible for bringing them together and setting their missions? Why are there so many foes, eager to stop them from carrying them out? And why is Drake keen for this op to be ‘the one’...?
