Welcome to the front lines, where the first contact between worlds and species has created a flashpoint in the battle to expand across the universe. Welcome to a world where a precarious ecology means the slightest misstep can cause death or worse ... sometimes from those you even consider friends. Welcome to Cavanagh's Star. Leading a mission to explore the planet and rescue a lost colony, Shan Frankland crossed the line between human and alien, between honour and morality, to save a world. Now, as four races prepare to battle for control of the planet and the secrets it holds she must find a way to stop the coming invasion. But Earth is determined to claim the planet for itself despite the deadly alien wess'har who protect the world and have formed an alliance with the rapacious, insectoid isenj. And Shan's former secondincommand will stop at nothing to kill Shan.
