Paulie is back and no longer on the run, instead he is hunting after his original antagonists with the help of his friends in the local adjudicators forces. But things won't be easy and criminals don't just fall into their cells without a struggle, he will need to fight for the justice that he seeks. But even when the cell doors are slammed closed and the keys are tossed away, not everything is as simple as it may at first appear. There are whisperings in the dark places of the world, and the dark whispers one name in particular. Paulie’s. His search for justice may take him beyond the walls of the alien city of Korscam and far from the safety of his friends, but Paulie has never been one to shy from duty when it rears its ugly head. The very fate of the world seems to hang in the balance and Paulie is holding the scales. Which way will he tip things, does he even have the power to make the wrong things right? Will Paulie lose his humanity in this new and hostile place, or will he find new strength amongst the stars and crush the darkness that lurks inside his own mind? One thing is for sure. Paulie and his friends have their work cut out for them, and despite all that stands in their way they may just find powerful new allies to call upon in their time of need.
