Together, they are attempting to shed light on the beings who once called this world home. After a large, unidentified vessel arrives in orbit and launches a seemingly unprovoked orbital bombardment, the USS Endeavour responds to the colony's distress call. As they attempt to render assistance and investigate the mysterious ship, Captain Atish Khatami and her crew begin to unlock the astonishing secrets the planet has harbored for centuries. Does the survival of a newly discovered yet endangered alien race pose a threat not only to Cantrel V but other inhabited worlds …
