The three spacefaring human governments have formed an alliance. When a fourth group of humans are discovered claiming that they are living under Rrennak oppression, something has to be done.
Captain Christopher Ryan and the starship Republic are sent to investigate. What they find is incredible; now they just have to escape the Rrennak Imperium with their proof. The only thing in their favor - the Imperium is dealing with its own problems. Maybe they won't notice the pesky humans.
Maybe.
