Reports from Dalnimir are alarming, with opposition to the planetary governor facing violent suppression. Individuals opposing the governor are being mugged, arrested, and even murdered in jail. Ann Turley and Paul Gulliver, seeking to escape their notoriety after the Julian Uprising, embark on a three-month journey to Dalnimir Province in the Earth Sector. As Section Six's most accomplished team, they aim to uncover the truth behind the unrest and restore order, but their mission is fraught with danger. In the Empire 14 setting, political opposition in Dalnimir is being actively silenced by the governor, with reports of violence against dissenters. Ann and Paul, now using aliases to avoid recognition, pose as a university professor and an investigative reporter to delve into the corruption. Their disguises quickly attract attention, revealing their true intentions. The cover features an armored personnel carrier, highlighting the involvement of Imperial Marines as mounted infantry. Dalnimir, meaning "far world," was once a challenging journey from Earth, but its agricultural potential, with three crops a year due to its lack of axial tilt, made it an attractive settlement. As they navigate this treacherous landscape, the stakes are high, and survival becomes a pressing concern.
