Chapter 44

In this chapter, Linsay arrives at the Hub amidst chaos caused by Spartacus's assault, quickly organizing a defensive strategy to stabilize the situation and prepare for a counterattack. Despite heavy losses and the enemy's control over much of the Hub, Linsay plans a surprise assault targeting Detroit rather than retreating via the Rim or Spindle. The chapter also reveals concern over Kim Sinclair's solo mission to jam the Decoupler, which may have ended in disaster, highlighting the desperate and high-stakes nature of the conflict.
