Find. Claim. Profit. In a post-Covenant War galaxy littered with scrap, it’s the salvager’s motto. And with a fast ship and a lust for adventure, Rion Forge has certainly made her mark on the trade. But when the discovery of a wrecked United Nations Space Command cruiser brings Rion’s past back to haunt her, stirring fresh hope into a decades-old wound, she’s hell-bent on finding answers: What really happened to her father, John Forge, and his ship, the Spirit of Fire?

This electrifying novella also contains the complete text of Kelly Gay’s short story “Into the Fire,” originally featured in the acclaimed collection Halo: Fractures!
