Plot summary[]

"IN THE CROSSHAIRS OF INFERNO SQUAD, PART I"

Valance has escaped Darth Vader with the help of T'onga and
her fellow bounty hunters. But their problems are just beginning! The
elite Imperial unit known as Inferno Squad is hounding them across
the galaxy. The crew of the ''Edgehawk'' managed to temporarily
evade their pursuers, but damage sustained in their escape has
forced them to surface for repairs at a remote spaceport. They are
more vulnerable than they realize.

Meanwhile, IG-88 is leaving a trail of dead bodies across the underworld
as the Empire continues to put bounties on the heads of Crimson
Dawn's allies. But his next target, Unbroken Clan leader Vukorah, is in
more immediate peril from her own syndicate….
