Fracture an empire and expose the weakness at its heart ...
Rebekah and the crew of the Sunstar are persuaded to transport Senti-built defensive hardware to the fleets' battleships by a desperate Countess Segfi. But the Butcher strikes, damaging the airless moonbase on Saim. Despite Rebekah's instincts, the Wrecking Squad can't abandon those in need and mount a rescue. But when the trap snaps shut, thousands die breathless in an instant, a moment the Butcher shares with the Emperor's Court laced with a threat to the rest of the system's vulnerable colonies. The price he demands for the Empire's safety is the Sunstar and the crew's secret of Faster Than Light Travel.
One ship, one crew, to save billions.
What price for survival?
Where The Expanse and Firefly meet, Emperor's Fall is the fifth book in the Wrecking Squad series as humanity fights for its future.
