Publisher's Synopsis
From Bad to Worse The Heliot War continues and the cost in lives grows. Jane Pace, the powerful Telekinetic, and her similarly gifted friends have fled Terra as Union President Archer tightens the screws on supernormal freaks of all descriptions and origins. They now live and work for fellow Pacey Captain Ian Armstrong's Phoenix Independent Mercenaries (the P.I.M.), but nowhere is truly safe. The Heely weapon, the Aquaformer, continues to allow the conquest of innocent worlds and Archer fuels the fire, pushing the Union military (including the Fleet commanded by Admiral Samuel Armstrong) into battles they cannot win. Archer's deliberate mismanagement of the war threatens to disembowel the Union. Enlisting the help of wealthy genius David Abrams, Jane has to plan for the most daring (and insanely dangerous) mission of her life. Unfortunately there is only one place she can go to stop Archer. She has to go back. Back to Terra.
