From the back cover (translated from German)
| “ | The Federated Commonwealth has to cope with a serious loss. Hanse Davion, First Prince of the Federated Suns and one of the main architects of the unification between House Davion and House Steiner, is dead.
New power struggles immediately erupt in the politically unstable Capellan March. On the planet Cammal, the arrival of a legitimate heir to the ducal throne which has been vacant since the Fourth Succession War is eagerly anticipated by the people. But instead of integrating the civil government and the Youngblood Renegades mercenaries, new rifts open up. Friends and allies find themselves in opposing camps as the planet slithers ever deeper into a crisis. Veteran Colonel Jason Craig Youngblood soon wonders if the troubled past has really been overcome yet. |
