Publisher's Summary
It costs a lot to win. And even more to lose.
Seven Corporations rule the former United States with seven codes of conduct based on their ideas of morality. Comply with the code of the Corporation that holds your Citizen Contract, or suffer the economic consequences. Or fight back. For 60 years the Democratic State Force has been fighting to return representative democracy to the country. Living in the no man’s lands between cities and hanging on by their fingernails, the thinly spread guerrilla force hasn’t gotten far. But they have a secret weapon: their finest unit, Base 1407. Handle: The Wildcards.
Pulled together after disaster by Commander Aidan Headly, the Wildcards are on top of their game again. They’d better be. They’ve just been called to act as backup in a mission bigger than anything the Force has attempted before. The team that went in first is probably dead. If they pull their mission off, everything will change. If they don’t, they’ll be lucky to survive the year.
Life’s a bitch. She’s got the game rigged. Keep the cards close to your chest.

A rich, compelling plot!
The Wildcards, led by Aidan Headly, are shaping up nicely and take the fight to Corps when some damning evidence comes their way. Along the way, the unit risk life and limb. I’m enjoying this sci-fi romance series, especially the overarching story arc about the incremental gains the rebel forces are making over the Corps - hopefully it will be enough to tip the balance at some point. I’m also enjoying more time with the Wildcards and the slow reveal of their secrets and mutual trust for each other. I felt the emotion was a little heavy-handed, there’s a self-harm trigger, but the story was gripping nonetheless. I like OE Tearmann’s writing format - there tends to be a series of small vignettes in each book that provide a richness to the main story arc. Kirt Graves provides is always excellent audio narration.
