Overview

"The long-planned raid on the heart of the Grik Empire has grown more ambitious--and dangerously ill defined. Only Matthew Reddy, commander of the old destroyer USS Walker, seems focused on the original intent. Many Lemurians see an opportunity to re-conquer their sacred homeland which was stolen long ago, and have no intention of simply striking a blow and then pulling back. Others, Lemurians and Humans, have their own agendas--that may not be in the best interests of the Alliance. Complicating matters further is Reddy's suspicion that his task force is being stalked by some unknown power bent on aiding the Grik for reasons of its own. As the raid begins, and chaos reigns, Reddy has no choice but to go ""all in"" and risk everything in a desperate act that results in a sprawling, nightmare battle on the beaches of ""Grik City,"" on the very decks of Walker, and in the labyrinthine passageways of the Celestial Palace itself. The final cost could be more than Matt Reddy--or the Alliance--can bear. The Destroyermen series continues from the New York Times bestselling author of Straits of Hell.
