PENDEK SHALL
NEVER DIE!

Hunters Associated was the simple name of the organization.  Who was behind it, what its ultimate purpose was, was never told its agents.  All they needed to know was that they covered the galaxy, that their real identities had been buried, that once in Hunters they could be anybody.

He was Seven.  That was all.  Identity Seven.  He had a new assignment.  Identity Six had just been slain - lasered down on a far world by enemies unknown.  But the death had been kept secret long enough for Seven to be sent to take his place.

To take his place, to take his features, to take his task - and to be a target to slay once again.  If he failed, there would be an Identity Eight to step into his burned-out shoes... and a Nine and a Ten.

But Seven was determined to see that the progression stopped with him - even if he had to go to the bottom of an alien sea and hobnob with horror.
