Official summary

“

Find. Claim. Profit. In a post-Covenant War galaxy littered with scrap, it's the salvager's motto—and Rion Forge certainly made her mark on the trade.

Each faction has a desire to lay claim to the spoils of ancient technology, whatever the cost, sending Rion and the crew of the Ace of Spades on a perilous venture—one that unexpectedly leads them straight into danger far greater than anything they’ve ever encountered...
