Plot

An unconventional corporate agent is given the task of shaping a group of violent criminals and technical wizards into a helicopter defense force assigned to protect a mining station on a remote moon.

In 2038, Earth's mineral resources are drained, there are space fights for the last deposits on other planets and satellites. This is the situation when one of the bigger mining corporations has lost many mineral moons except one and many of their fully automatic mining robots are disappearing on their flight home. Since nobody else wants the job, they send prisoners as a last resort to defend the mining station. Among them, internal affairs agent Felix Stone, assigned to clear the whereabouts of the expensive robots. In an atmosphere of corruption, fear and hatred, Stone gets between the fronts of rivaling groups and locates the person committing sabotage.—Tom Zoerner <Tom.Zoerner@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>

In 2038, Earth's natural resources are gone, huge multinational corporations wage war to defend mineral deposits on various mining planets. One by one, corporate owned moons and their priceless mining shuttles fall prey in a very hostile takeover by an enemy corporation. As a last resort, convicts have been assigned to pilot helicopters in the planet's nasty atmosphere navigated by teenage computer wizards. One of the convicts, Felix Stone, is an internal affairs agent assigned to capture a renegade that is hijacking mining shuttles. In an atmosphere of corruption, fear and hatred, Stone gets between the fronts of rivaling groups and locates the person committing sabotage.—Tim Kretschmann <Tim.K@VirComm.com>
