Beyond the 4.5 billion he must save, Idyllium is his daughter's only hope. As he crosses over, Marc grasps a keepsake from his little girl. He must make this end justify his means. His planet is dying. A covert mission to save billions clashes with the fate of a pristine parallel world—and his terminally ill daughter. Lines blur from politician to soldier to civilian. Loyalties are challenged. From a high-profile assassination to taking down the defensive grid of a peaceful planet, this mission takes desperate curves, dividing members of the operation. Marc confides in his team to find a way to save two worlds while preserving their humanity. From preparation to active mission, the life of his little girl dangles before his moral compass, setting its needle askew. Jewel will be lucky to see a couple more birthdays—unless he can get her to Idyllium in time. Will this end in a “mission accomplished”? Would that be a victory or defeat?
