   Summary

   Ten years after the war, Commander Shepard is dead to the galaxy. Arista is what remains: a ghost-operator, bounty hunter, and woman with no intention of ever being found again.

   Then a contract on Omega brings Richard B. Riddick onto her ship, and with him comes something worse than a bounty. An old empire is moving at the edge of known space. Worlds are being tested. People are disappearing. The Necromongers have come to the Milky Way.

   Now Arista is trapped between the life she buried, the people she left behind, and a man as dangerous and damaged as she is.
