New recruits. New technology. New threats. SHADO is nearly fully operational, but the alien
menace is intensifying at a greater rate than the fledgling organisation can cope with. Under
ever-increasing pressures, Straker is repeatedly put to the test. Facing unimaginable
weaponry, warring factions, and near-insurmountable personal strain - can the man leading
the fight to defend Earth survive? Contains three new stories;
2.1 Lost in Action.
An unexpected confrontation at 30,000 feet leads to a civilian casualty. With no other options,
Straker must recruit this stubborn but brave pilot to join SHADO. Meanwhile, Straker’s team
orders the early activation of Moonbase - without his consent. It’s just in time. Now, the
nascent organisation is being put to the ultimate test, and SHADO’s latest recruit will have put
his life on the line.
2.2 Assassination Time.
In the wake of loss, SHADO’s problems are brought into sharp focus by a series of unexpected
and inexplicable events. A new threat from the aliens emerges - one that the organisation is illequipped to deal with. With few options left, Straker must follow his instincts and put SHADO’s
survival in the hands of a traitor.
2.3 Breaking Point.
SHADO faces a severe security breach, swiftly followed by the most intense and highlycoordinated alien threat it has ever seen. Straker now faces unimaginable pressures from
every angle. The strain on him, and his organisation, reach impossible levels. Mistakes will be
made. Lives will be lost. Could this be the end?
