The book centers on ''ristar'' [[Jake Kabrinski]] and his service with [[Clan Ghost Bear]] during the onset of the FedCom Civil War.
 
−
 
−
It begins with a battle between [[Clan Hell's Horses]], [[Clan Snow Raven]], and [[Clan Ghost Bear]] on the planet [[Bearclaw]]. Khan Malavai Fletcher of Clan Hell's Horses is ambushed by Ghost Bear [[Elementals]] led by Jake Kabrinski. Fletcher uses his [[Gnome]] [[battle armor]]'s superior range to kill the Ghost Bear Star Commander, but the Ghost Bear Elementals are able to use their superior mobility to stall the Gnomes until Snow Raven air support drives them into a retreat.
