So when Colonel Carl Butler answers the call from an old and powerful friend, he knows it's something big�and he's not being told the whole story. A high councilor's son has gone MIA out of Cappa Base, the space station orbiting a battle-ravaged planet. The young lieutenant had been wounded and evacuated�but there's no record of him having ever arrived at hospital command. The colonel quickly finds Cappa Base to be a labyrinth of dead ends and sabotage: the hospital commander stonewalls him, the Special Ops leader won't come off the planet, witnesses go missing, radar data disappears, and that�s before he encounters the alien enemy. Butler has no choice but to drop down onto a hostile planet�because someone is using the war zone as a cover. The answers are there�Butler just has to make it back alive�
