After a rescue mission goes sideways, Elizabeth Etez, the leader of a small special ops unit is killed. Her consciousness is backed up, and she expects to be transmigrated to a nearby field hospital or orbital station. Her signal is hijacked and she's brought back on a foreign planet. The process was botched and she's riddled with genetic defects. She needs to evade capture and survive long enough to try to get rescued all without her team, her gear, or even her health.
