In the year 2171, the world is a different place. Countries have merged into rival super-nations called E.C.U. and U.C.O. Humanity has begun a massive foray into space by constructing orbital elevators to install surveillance satellites and spy on their adversaries.

Dylan Ramsey, a young engineer, quickly finds himself swept up in a whirlwind of destruction, conspiracy, and broken alliances in a new war unfolding between the E.C.U and the U.C.O.
