In the terrible slaughter on the planet Far Haven, only the three of them survived — the Star Ermines, warriors of the elite special forces of the Fifth Fleet of the Russian Empire. Many years have passed, and they have been given a unique chance to confront face to face those who provoked the attack on a peaceful Russian colony, and to punish the enemies for the senseless and cruel bloodshed. There are only three of them against entire armies of fighters from the space mafia — yet the Ermines unit remains combat-ready as long as even one soldier is alive.
