Vicki managed to survive the Second Battle of Chaser's Rock, though as she'd predicted, she almost turned into a strawberry popsicle as Manta raced toward the outer galaxy. Rescued by her husband, Norman Stecker, and Robbie Metzger, she once again finds herself on wanted person. Chinese and Russian agents shadow her every move and Vicki quickly decides Earth is no longer safe for her, or anyone else close to her.
Making matters worse, she'd risked her life to trick the Russians into prematurely attacking her, only to have the opportunity wasted The American carrier force confronting the approaching Chinese and Russians quickly eliminated the Russian missile ships but Washington denied permission to destroy the vulnerable Chinese ships.
But Vicki wasn't without friends. Most of the military understood the risks she'd taken and were beginning to believe their leaders weren't truly interested in defending America. That belief was filtering down to the voters of the United States. It was unlikely the current president would be re-elected, but Vicki doubted the change would happen in time.
Vicki decided it was time to take matters into her own hands again and stop the Chinese. It would be one last roll of the dice, and she decided to call in a group of friends to help. Once again, the Cripples were going into battle.
Genre: Science Fiction
