The Weapon
Mission : Sabotage a Planet, Survival Not Guaranteed . . .

Kenneth Chinran was a disaffected youth who joined the military
and was recruited for an elite deep cover unit, surviving training and
exercises so tough that several of the recruits did not survive. At
the peak of his career, he was sent by his star nation to infiltrate a
fascistic, militaristic planet--Earth.

He lived in deep cover for years, marrying and having a daughter.
Then the Earth forces attacked his home system, and he and his
team came out of hiding, attacking and destroying the infrastructure
of the crowded planet, disabling transportation and
communications and creating terror in city after city.

As a result of his attacks, billions died for lack of the food, water
and power which the ravaged system could no longer supply. His
sabotage was successful, but the deaths of so many weighed
heavily on his mind, making him wonder if he was still sane. Then
the secret police discovered his identity. With his daughter, the
only thing in his life that had so far kept him human, he was on the
run, while the resources of a planetwide police state were tracking
him down. He could see no way to escape from the planet, no way
to keep hiding, and if he and his daughter were caught, death was
the very least that they could expect.

But Chinran is a warrior in his soul, and even if he loses this last
battle, he won't go down without a fight that his pursuers--the ones
who survive--will never forget.
