We were told that only the finest of mankind ventured forth from Earth into space. But if you ask any of the other intelligent species, they will tell you fast and quick that where mankind goes, evil grows. Evil follows us in our jump wakes like a foul stench. According to them, mankind was cast into the outer darkness because of the evil in his heart. Four millennia later, Earth had become just a distant memory, a legend. Explorers sent back to find Old Earth only found a burned-out cinder where it should be.
So then, Mankind had surely been cast into the outer darkness for a reason. Fate had saved this remnant of Mankind, and He was not willing that any who belonged to Him were lost. So, once more, Fate tested mankind in the crucible of time to separate the gold from the slag.
Into this chaos came a secret wrapped in an enigma enclosed in a mystery. In the beginning, Mother was killed for this secret by the worst gangster on eleven planets. David Zharn would stop at nothing, kill anyone in his path, to gain the secret. But then there was Suzy. She was not at all what she seemed, nonetheless, she was every bit what was needed.

When Special Forces gets involved, this becomes a spy versus spy story to nines in a full contact match. The Syndicate was not about to give up what it considered theirs to take.
And then there was the secret. Was mankind cast into the outer darkness because of the evil in his heart? You will have to discover the secret to find out.
