Jiang Qiwu is the most forgotten commander on a blighted planet. He leads a band of battered troops in defending the star-dust wasteland, until a desperate counterattack sees him kill the enemy’s gene primarch, sending shockwaves across the galaxy. The truth only comes to light when the enemy’s battle report is leaked: the corpse he tore apart with his own hands bore an insignia sharing his bloodline. Meanwhile, the one truly lurking within the Imperial military command is Lu Jianshen, who has never once shown his face. When Jiang Qiwu’s genetic lock awakens on the battlefield, Lu Jianshen finally removes his mask and whispers, “You are my lost left hand. Now it’s time for you to return.” Their fates shift from enemies to kin, tearing open the galaxy’s darkest war of blood ties.
