Plot summary[]

"THE SHADOW FALLS" PART 5 OF 5

The war against the Rebel Alliance has stretched even the resources of the mighty Galactic Empire thin. It was crucial that Squadron Five accomplish their most
recent mission to recapture a Star Destroyer from a traitorous Imperial admiral despite losing two of their own in the process. One of those killed in action--Zin--
was revealed to have been a rebel informant! Using this intel, Shadow Wing has tracked down the mobile rebel base responsible for not only Zin's betrayal but a
slew of defections.

Word from Imperial brass is that the Rebellion's days are now officially numbered. Shadow Wing is ready to do their part and destroy the base…but their newest
recruits haven't yet tasted battle....
