McKnight's Mission
(2015)A House Divided, Book 1
(The fourth book in the Spineward Sectors: Middleton's Pride series)
A novel by Caleb Wachter
Book Four in the military sci-fi Middleton's Pride series, set in the popular Spineward Sectors universe--which is up to fifteen books and counting!
The last chapter in the escalating war between the Multi-Sector Patrol Fleet and House Raubach saw the destruction of the so-called Alpha Site at Cagnzyz, but the Imperials were not the only side to take heavy losses during that climactic conflict.
In the aftermath of that fateful battle, the burden of command falls to the young, ambitious Lieutenant McKnight. Her top priority is to return to Fleet Headquarters with her surviving crew in one piece along with a freighter full of mysterious technology--but of nearly equal importance is establishing an intelligence advantage over the forces which continue to destabilize the Spineward Sectors to the detriment of its citizens.
To do that, she must devise a winning plan and convince Admiral Montagne to let her to undertake it--and then she must succeed in that undertaking, which is certain to be no easy task in itself. Her crew must also learn to adapt to life without the comrades they lost at Cagnzyz, and no member of McKnight's crew will find this more difficult than Lu Bu when she welcomes new life into the universe.
Old allies are replaced by new ones, and an old grudge is finally settled when McKnight leads an unlikely assemblage of warships to House Raubach's final bastion in the Spineward Sectors: the Beta Site. Will they succeed, or will House Raubach finally remove McKnight and her allies from the picture?
