Captain Grahad Mills commanded the Jackal, an elite unit of soldiers fighting in powered armour. As his country faces defeat, his own men betray him and accuse him of treason. Condemned after a military trial without a proper defence, he escapes on the morning of his execution and begins a battle that the official end of the war cannot settle. Mills seeks both revenge and an explanation for the betrayal. His former comrades, military authorities and the forces shaping his defeated homeland stand between him and the truth. The skills that once made him a valuable soldier now help him survive as a fugitive. Jun Shindo builds this military science-fiction story around heavy infantry equipment, tactical confrontations and divided loyalties. Detailed armour and weapons give the fighting a physical presence, while the investigation behind Mills's anger connects individual combat to a wider struggle over responsibility and power.
