The novel opens with an attack by Kig-Yar in [[the Rubble]], an [[Insurrectionist]] asteroid base, and an unofficial collony which was constructed as a refugee base during the Covenant siege of Madrigal. The Jackals are attempting to steal navigation data from [[Ignatio Delgado]] and his friend [[Melko Hollister]]. The Jackals want the data because it would lead the Covenant to humanity's homeworld, [[Earth]]. Melko manages to escape the fighting at Delgado's insistence that the last remaining navigation data leading to Earth must be kept safe. Unfortunately, Melko is shot and later dies of his wounds.

Melko manages to escape the fighting at Delgado's insistence that the last remaining navigation data leading to Earth must be kept safe. Unfortunately, Melko is shot and later dies of his wounds.


While holding off the [[Kig-yar|Jackals]], Delgado is almost killed, but is saved by SPARTAN [[Adriana-111]] of [[Gray Team]]. She hands him a beacon, which will send a signal to her team to retrieve the data if he should no longer be capable of keeping it safe. She then orders him to keep Gray Team a secret from the [[Rubble Security Council]].
