"First called, final star, they hold the line."

Years of war have taken their toll on the crew of Gold 1, but there's no rest to be had. Even as forty years of war seem to be ending, a new threat lurks in the shadows which could tip the balance of power against The United Systems Republic.

As the danger grows and battle lines are drawn, Major Jason Harlem, and his fox like Holdren crew, will lead their veteran fighter group back into the fires of war. But with a fragile peace hanging in the balance, forces working behind the scenes of both governments, and an outside threat that may not be "new" at all, Gold 1, and perhaps others, will be tested in ways they never could have expected.

Can the Gold Group hold the line one more time, or will the cost of fighting become too great to bear?
