by Craig Hughes (Author)

The latest lethal development in a secret war between two interplanetary superpowers, Project Snipe is an elite task-force chosen to test an experimental weapon designed to give the PPB Navy a decisive advantage against their fierce rivals, the Sovereign's intimidating Black Fleet. Miranda Jowett, leader of Project Snipe and captain of the infamous pirate hunter, "Savatara," has her own ideas about testing the weapon, and now her ship - known to pirates as the "Savage Terror" - has gone rogue. Fixated on hunting and destroying as many Black Fleet craft as she can, Jowett's obsession is making her powerful enemies on both sides of the conflict. Caught in the firing line is Glen Rothgill, after joining the military in peacetime only to discover that peacetime is a lie, he finds himself pulled into the grim and brutal race to stop the Savatara's deadly campaign.
