The crew of the Reckless Faith has spent six weeks in hyperspace traveling to a distant star system to fulfill an unknown mission. Upon arrival, it becomes clear that any hope for a quick resolution was only wishful thinking. Powerful political forces, an intergalactic mercenary guild, and a fleet of ruthless invaders are working to stop them. Traveling to Umber was just the beginning; liberating it seems impossible if the crew of the Faith must stand alone against The Tarantula Nebula.
