A new breed of immortal villains threatens the Cluster…and only one man can stop them.
Racing against spooks and space pirates, freighter captain Mike Starrunner embarks on a do-or-die mission to prevent interstellar war.
After the failure of the Fleet’s containment operations, the disruptive gene-mod known as the Transcendence is about to fall into the hands of criminals who’ll use it to conquer the Cluster. Mike and his crew are the only ones with a chance of catching them in time. Out on their own without backup, they chase the Travelers to a dead planet where a shocking discovery awaits.
When they’re betrayed and left for dead, Mike and the crew have only one option left. They must strike at the Travelers’ stronghold. Can they overcome the impossible odds and save the Cluster, or will their failure doom human civilization?
