About the Book
Harry Silver faced economic ruin thanks to losing his starship to a Berserker, one of the automated killing machines with armament capable of sterilizing a planet and programmed eons ago buy a now-extinct race to destroy all life. Then the fabulously wealthy Cheng offered him a new top-of-the-line ship in return for rescuing Cheng's granddaughter and her son – who had been kidnapped from their space yacht by a Berserker.
But silver thought the job was both dangerous and futile. Berserkers usually killed humans outright, and only took them alive for experimentation, to find weaknesses in their most dangerous enemy. So he declined Cheng's offer – until Silver's own wife and daughter were abducted by a Berserker, possibly the same one.

but not without suspisions. The timing of the abduction of his family
could not be a matter of chance. He soon found thsat his wildest
suspisions fell short of the truth, and was forced into an alliance he
could never have predicted – one which he was unlikely to survive...
