Building a crew of mech drivers isn’t easy. So of course that is exactly what Breaker needs to solve a deadly mystery and stop a galactic war. The attrition during recruit training can reach ninety percent for those who pass the initial tryout. Still on the move and in search of answers that could doom the Alliance of Planets, Benjamin Wrath and his APOP crew must scrape up candidates from the villainous, disreputable spaceports along the way. What could possibly go wrong? Everything is on the line now. When they rescue children stolen by a mysterious new threat, the countdown to the invasion they’ve tried to stop accelerates. At the end of the day, their enemies won’t be who or what they expected. Experience the third entry in the ongoing Galactic Shield series by Dragon Award nominee and USA Today Bestseller J.N. Chaney and author Scott Moon.
