Star Wars - Jedi Battle Scars

Cal Kestis, a Jedi who survived the fall of his Order, now lives among the crew of the Stinger Mantis. Merrin, Cere, Greez and the droid BD-1 are the closest thing he has to a family. Together they have beaten bounty hunters, defeated Inquisitors and slipped away from Darth Vader.

What should be a routine mission goes differently when the crew meets a stormtrooper who wants to leave the Empire. She asks for help building a new life. In return she offers word of a powerful tool that could serve their fight, and she knows how to reach it.

The price is danger. Getting to the prize means crossing the path of the Fifth Brother, an Inquisitor and one of the Empire's most dangerous servants. Cal and the crew have outrun Inquisitors before, but the deserter's motives are unproven, and each daring strike leaves them more exposed.

This is a Star Wars adventure novel following Cal's crew, set between the games Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. It centres on a found family of rebels, and the question running through it is whether a stranger from the other side can be trusted, and how long the crew's luck can hold.
