No longer a captive, Shondre has won the trust of her Colonist hosts and leads the first peace delegation in twelve hundred years. But memory of Thompson's brutal sneak attack on Earth is still fresh. Can her people be swayed, or will they shout her down in howls for blood?

Cadre One is discovered. Colonists and MedTechs evacuate aboard the Europa to deep space. To cover their escape, General O'Kai commits to an all-out assault of Eleto occupied Earth. Success means wiping out every Eleto in a reverse genocide. Should he fail, there is no place of retreat. And so, he sends his stalwart first officer, Colonel Shao-Lo, back to Cadre Two. Her orders: Get inside and prop the doors open by any means necessary...

Armed only with her wits and stoic attitude, Shao-Lo confronts the depths of Cadre Two's mad depravity. Honniker and Mikato entice her with weaponry so powerful it could assure the victory O'Kai seeks. In return, they insist she undergo a procedure so extreme, no act of medical cruelty has ever approached it...

Hatred and revenge vie against love and forgiveness in this powerful series conclusion, Plasma Rain.
