A Deception and a Promise Kept (Perseus Gate: Inner Stars) (Volume 2)

Attacked on Cerka station with lines of communication down, the crew of Sabrina must engage in a station-wide battle with foes both physical and ephemeral in an attempt to save Virginis from itself. While Jessica, Usef, and Trevor take on the physical threats, a dire enemy waits for Iris and Amavia to step into its expanse. Both groups will need to achieve victory if Virginis is to remain in the fight. All the while, the Hegemony forces circle in the outer reaches of the Virginis System.
