"Promise Paen, captain of Victor Company's mechanized armored infantry, is back for another adventure prtecting the Republic of Armed Worlds. Lieutenant Paen barely survived her last encounter with the Lusitanian Empire. She's returned home to heal. But the nightmare won't stop. And she's got a newly reconstituted unit of green Marines to whip into shape before they deploy. If the enemies of the RAW don't kill them first, she just might do the job herself. Light-years away, on the edge of the Republican space, a massive vein of rare ore is discovered on the mining planet of Sheol, igniting an arms race and a proxy war between the RAW and the Lusitanians. Paen and Victor Company are ordered to Sheol to reinforce the planet and hold it at all costs. On the eve of their deployment, a friendly fire incident occurs, putting Paen's career in jeopardy and stripping her of her command. When the Lusitanians send mercenaries to raid Sheol and destabilize its mining operations, matters reach crisis level. Disgraced and angry, Promise is offered one shot to get back into her mechsuit-- if she's willing to jump across half the galaxy and storm the gates of hell itself." --
