Admiral Daniel Atgard and the crew of the *Apocalypse* embark on a mission to find these enigmatic aliens, but the focus of the mission quickly turns from finding answers to exacting revenge.

Faced with overwhelming odds and the terrible knowledge of humanity's most horrifying secret, Daniel must choose between honor... and humanity's very survival.
