Publisher's Synopsis
Elis Hawkins was the poster child of the Alliance Navy. Top of his class in command school, accolades, and a swift promotion were all his, but all that changed when the Orion, flagship of the Alliance fleet, crashed into the Pacific Ocean on its return home from its maiden voyage to the Centauri star system. Facing accusations of crimes against humanity and with overwhelming evidence stacked against him, he must endure a court-martial hearing and try to convince the Alliance brass of his innocence. The mission was top secret, but all secrets will come out as Elis urgently gives the Centauri Report before Earth's time runs out.
