About this listen

Empress Regent Hiroko gave Admiral Julie Adams a simple order. Go to the Zenkarr system and solve the Teddy Bear problem. But like all things in life, simple orders don’t always mean simple solutions. Even before entering the home system of the devious race, Julie was forced to fight a pitched battle against the Zenkarr fleet.

The new War Leader doesn’t have enough firepower to defeat the Zenkarr Fleet…but neither can she pull her forces back to Earth, as Emperor Hazard’s commitments to other alien races in the region make that impossible.

To extract the empire from the situation while still defending its allies will force Julie to think outside the box, and she’ll need to use all her guile—and surprisingly, her diplomacy—to solve the problem. But most of all, Julie Adams will need to step out of her dead friend’s shadow and become a hero in her own right.
