It all comes down to this: Feroz and the conspirators have chosen to make a last stand. Treading carefully, Jace, Onima, Kara, and the rest of the CBI team have an opportunity to pull the proverbial rug out from under them. The team is under the gun. The opposition has forces preparing to strike. They only have a few days before more attacks on clones take place as part of the effort to unravel the Confederation and sow further chaos and spread more disinformation.

Jace, Onima, and Kara are literally under the gun after an unexpected betrayal. This new threat comes as they’re investigating obscene money moves, attempts at weakening the Confederation government and the Bureau, plus increasing anti-clone sentiment. Yet, the disparate pieces and players on the board point to something else. But what? Feroz and his confederates are playing multiple games. Is their goal to take down the Confederation and bring back hidden pre-war leaders? Is it all about amassing surreal wealth unseen in centuries? Or is it something else entirely?

Thanks to the turncoat’s gambit, the investigation has forced the CBI team to split up. After witnessing the birth of a potential new conspiracy, Onima and Jace are stuck at AECC headquarters while Kara and a small team are trapped at a distant station on the other side of the Confederation. All of them are up against politicians and uber-wealthy businesspeople, some of whom seem to be doing illicit things to get even more obscenely rich. Worse, they’re using clones as scapegoats for further distractions and misdirection.

Time’s up! All the pieces are in place and the conspirators have set their plot in motion. Confederation Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Marshal Onima Gwok, Deputy Marshal Kara Martinez, and clone Jace Rojas must use every resource available to them to halt the conspiracy in its tracks. But, the CBI has been compromised. Onima and her team must work to not only save the Confederation - but the lives of tens of thousands of clones throughout colonial space.

The vagus nerve is the longest and most complex of all the 12 pairs of cranial nerves emanating from the brain! Obviously, owing to its size and complexity, you can bet that its responsibilities are just as many. For example, it is responsible for carrying messages to and from the heart, brain, digestive system, various organs, and muscles. It is responsible for the parasympathetic nervous system and oversees many critical body functions, including communicating motor as well as sensory impulses to every body organ.
