The galaxy belongs to corporations. Worlds burn, colonies fall, and soldiers are nothing more than expendable assets.

Captain Carter commands the Samurai, a privateer ship clinging to survival at the edge of empire. Once he fought for ideals, now he fights only to protect the last thing that matters. Every contract draws his crew deeper into a war they cannot win, and every battle demands more than they can afford to give.

Loyalty has a price. Resistance has a cost. In the end, Carter must decide which is worth dying for.
