Publisher Description

Some wars can't be won with a battle. The Caliphate has done the unthinkable. Millions dead, and the Alliance is to blame. The war cannot continue.

With a new president elected to end the war, and a new cabinet to help her, Spymaster Wit DeBeck is out for good. He has one last shot to end the war on his terms. He just needs an experimental ship and a Captain with the skill to pull it off.

After a year assigned to training command, Jacob is ready to get back in the hot seat. However, the navy wants to ground him after he lost the battleship 17 on the outskirts of Alexandria. Only a naval inquiry can clear his name, but he has to wait on half pay for the better part of a year to know the results, or...

Wit offers him a chance. A chance to end the war and force the Caliphate to surrender. Not with a battle, but a secret mission to pull off the impossible, using hidden starlanes to drive deep into Caliph space and end them once and for all.

He's the only man who can do it, and the only captain expendable enough to be allowed to try.

If Jacob T. Grimm can't pull off the impossible one last time, the Alliance will fall and with them, the last grasp of freedom in the galaxy.

Take command, grab your ELS, and suit up with the crew and buy The Longest Battle now.
