After more than 20 years in special operations, USMC Gunnery Sergeant Wolf Mathison wasn’t looking forward to retirement when—implanted with an experimental artificial intelligence—he deployed on his last mission with a platoon of Marine Raiders being sent to the Jovian moon Europa. The USS Jefferson was destroyed en route, though, and only Mathison and three other marines survived. Trapped in stasis, they were hurled into the outer reaches of the solar system, where they wouldn’t be found for hundreds of years.

When his AI are corrupted by alien code and the op runs afoul of a long-dormant threat, it falls to Sevvers, his unsanctioned AI, codenamed Six, and a fireteam of Marines to fight a desperate battle on multiple fronts.
