A disastrous meeting with Chig fighters on a routine patrol leaves Hawkes seriously wounded – and leaves Ross with only one conclusion: the 58th has reached a point of total burnout. The Wild Cards are given a weekend of R&R aboard Bacchus, a mobile pleasure center. Some of the 58th find it hard to resist the temptation to stay there, but one of them is even worse off. Injected with human drugs by a doctor who didn’t realize he was an in vitro, Hawkes becomes a danger to himself, his career, and his comrades in arms.
