Devastated by the loss of his wife, Jason Task has spent thirteen years creating wealth through various businesses including his infamous Tactical Extractions, Ltd., a business entity whose sole purpose is to rescue endangered individuals from the clutches of tyranny. Fully understanding the global reach of evil, he has decided that the time has come to launch a full-scale assault on those who choose to deliberately destroy innocent human lives.

Yet, to save individuals is not merely enough to safeguard the progress of humanity itself. It must evolve like all life forms and this requires breaking the umbilical with the Earth itself. Thus enlightened, Jason decides to pour his massive resources into the goal of creating a space-based civilization, one that holds true to man's traditional morals and virtues, an objective that climaxes in the creation of The Gatestrian Knights - a modern version of the mythical medieval crusaders. Their goal is to "Protect the dignity and integrity of innocent human life, wherever and whenever it may be placed in jeopardy and by whatever means may be necessary."

Unfortunately, one cannot confront evil without making enemies, particularly very powerful ones, and Jason soon finds himself embroiled on several fronts, including that with an unseen U.S. adversary and a very potent Asian nation, bringing his plans to the brink of destruction before he even has a chance to begin.
