Cain and Francesca, two of the Orbital Archipelago’s elite soldiers-of-fortune, had anticipated a tedious morning of interviewing prospective clients when an emergency call came in on Cain’s private line. Paula Cruz, the DMI hacker who had supported Cain on countless scores over the last eight years, had come under attack: Lester Sims, the mob boss with whom she had a protection agreement, had just pulled her aircover and mercenaries were inbound to kidnap her—or worse. Cain and Francesca immediately set out to follow Paula’s escape vehicle to Earth, where the three fugitives must now run for their lives to evade the pursuing mercs and, ultimately, discover the identity of Paula’s attacker, his purpose, and end the threat—permanently.

From the riotous streets of Texas, to the opulent high-rises of Chicago, to the seediest corners of the archipelago, Cain, Francesca, and Paula must hunt the hunter in this next thrilling novel in The Cain Series.
