Un secreto enterrado en la Antártida por miles de años. Y un sargento muy cabreado por tener que hacer de niñera para los investigadores que tienen que resolver el misterio. La última misión de Patrick Finnegan, alias Bic, antes de jubilarse de los marines, lo lleva hasta las montañas subglaciales Ellsworth. Pero ¿el motivo de verdad por el que está ahí? Le debe un favor a un viejo amigo. Aunque eso no significa que lo hará con gusto. Cuando Bic ve lo que han descubierto, no puede creerlo. Tampoco está listo para el estallido de violencia que se va a desencadenar.

Ein Geheimnis, verborgen in der Antarktis. Ein Rätsel, das seit Jahrtausenden auf seine Lösung wartet. Und ein Master Gunnery Sergeant aus Brooklyn, der ausgesprochen sauer ist, weil er auf einen Haufen Wissenschaftler aufpassen soll.

Ludzie są zaganiani jak owce na rzeź. A ich jedyną nadzieją na przetrwanie jest drużyna, która właśnie opuściła planetę. Po udanej misji zniszczenia pierścienia łowców niewolników w Nowym Jorku, Wic i członkowie Drużyny Widm przechodzą przez pierścień na Antarktydzie i znajdują się w głębi Imperium Androchidan. Ale gdy zakres operacji obcego gatunku staje się oczywisty, Drużyna Widm zdaje sobie sprawę, że nie mogą stać z boku, kiedy ludzkość jest zmuszana do uległości. Należy dołożyć wszelkich starań, aby spowolnić postęp wroga, o ile nie uda się powstrzymać go całkowicie.

Pochodzący z Brooklynu starszy sierżant zbrojmistrz jest niesamowicie wkurzony, bo musi niańczyć ekipę wysłaną w celu zbadania Ziemi. To ostatnia przed przejściem na emeryturę operacja członka oddziału raidersów Patricka "Wica" Finnegana, w trakcie której przybywa na skute lodem wyżyny subglacjalne Ellsworth. Jedynym powodem jego ekspedycji jest przysługa, jaką jest winien staremu przyjacielowi. Nie oznacza to jednak, że pała do tej misji entuzjazmem. Kiedy Wic widzi w końcu, co odkryli naukowcy, nie wierzy własnym oczom. Nie jest również gotowy na zbliżającą się przemoc.

È la sua ultima operazione prima del pensionamento e Patrick "Wic" Finnegan viene spedito sugli altipiani ghiacciati di Ellsworth. L'unica ragione per cui ha accettato? Deve un favore a un vecchio amico ma questo non vuol dire che lo faccia volentieri. Quando Wic finalmente vede ciò che la squadra di ricercatori ha scoperto, non può credere ai propri occhi: una tempesta furibonda si sta per scatenare sulla Terra.

For four millennia, the 16 planets of the Imperium sector have served as a bastion of peace against the Chaosic Regions.

Meanwhile, Orelia decides to set off on a harrowing mission that will put her deep into enemy territory. Can she keep her identity a secret and still convince the Senate to re-write its laws?
