Synopsis
Engaged in a campaign against the hated greenskins, the Ultramarines bring their righteous fury to the manufactorum city of Skemarchus. Veteran warrior Vael Donatus is hailed as a hero by the young firebrand Chaplain Cassius for employing the expertise of his brethren only recently returned from the hallowed ranks of the Deathwatch. But as the final assault draws near, the judicious and practical methods of the Sternguard seem incompatible with Cassius’ own – can the fate of a world really be decided by just one bullet?
