They have made her mad! It is tough to give peace a chance when the other side views war as something that comes before a conquest. Which is why Manticore needs to get some allies against Haven, and planet Grayson looks to make for a good ally.
The Foreign Office failed to notice a cultural difference when they had Honor Harrington go and carry the flag. The Proles have started revolting. The ruling class knows what it will take to keep power. One more short and victorious war that will unite all of the people and fill up the treasury once again. It is card they have played quite a few times in the last fifty years and they have always been successful with it.
All that stands in the way is the Star Kingdom of Manticore and its weakening allies. This time the Peeps are up against something different. This time, they will have to take on Captain Honor Harrington along with a Royal Manticoran Navy that is ready to give them a war that will be far from short.
Not to mention anything but victorious. The Peeps are now in disarray, with their leaders fighting for power in a bloody revolution, and the Royal Manticoran Navy is victorious. She is now trapped in the middle of a political crisis that she never wanted, and is betrayed by a vicious and old enemy she believed was put away forever.
Honor finds herself alone at the moment. She has to fight to get justice on a field of battle she never trained for in a private war where there are only two choices. Harrington, the eponymous heroine of the novel is a Naval officer in the Royal Manticoran Navy, which is a space navy placed in the Kingdom of Manticore. Honor Harrington is a fearless commander, genius in tackling situations and often overcomes various odds in her professional life.
Her first assignment would be in Basilisk Station, which would involve checking cargoes for contraband. In the end Honor Harrington and her crew uncover the invasion plan of Haven and stop it. The entire novel series deals with various military tactics, hyperspace, Weaponry, Calculation of Accelaration rates, technical challenges, etc.
All over the series Honor Harrington is an admirable Heroine, she is smart, intellectual, loyal, courageous, determinant, proud, honest and extremely reliable. But the Grayson planet people are a bit backward in their thoughts and they do not accept a woman being in command, they consider women as property of men. Grayson planet, is also in danger, as another planet called Masada in ally with the weapon supplier Haven, tries to erase Grayson from the star fleet.
Honor Harrington has to save Grayson and her own Planet Manticore, despite the rejection she faces and the affront of powers she encounters in Grayson.
Meanwhile Honor Harrington recovers from the injuries she sustained in the battle happened in the last novel to protect Grayson. In this book, the rise of Honor Harrington is being criticized by a few and appreciated by many. And she is rewarded as Dame Honor in this Book. In the second half of the book, three battles takes place, only one with Honor Harrington in it is explained briefly and we get to know the real detail on it.
The book is filled with dictatorial politics, stereotypical, power politics, etc. In the first half, the surprise attack of the enemy planet, Republic of Haven on Manticore is failed, As usual Manticorian Navy wins again raising the disarray among leaders, she gets trapped in the political crisis, get betrayed by an enemy and she stands alone.
She must fight a war which has two ends, one is death, another victory accompanied by dishonour and loss of all she has loved. She is retreated to Grayson planet, where she takes up the role of Steadholder, and in the process heals from her bitter past.
