Inferno Squad
Synopsis
The Death Star is gone and its plans are in rebel hands. The Empire, humiliated, answers with Inferno Squad, an elite unit of Imperial soldiers. Their orders are to infiltrate the Partisans and destroy them from the inside.
The Partisans are the rebel faction Saw Gerrera once led, and he was a freedom fighter in the days of the Republic. Since his death, they have kept up his extremist methods and are determined to hinder the Empire whatever it costs them.
The squad has to prove it is the best the Empire has. Working undercover among the enemy means that every day carries the risk of exposure, and one slip could end the mission and the team with it.
The novel takes place right after Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and works as a prequel to the videogame Battlefront II. It follows the Empire's side of the conflict, with action and espionage at its core. The question it turns on is how far Inferno Squad will go to protect the Empire.
