| Summary | "The Alembic Plot: A Terran Empire Novel" by Ann Wilson is a science fiction novel written in the early 1990s. The narrative revolves around a military and law enforcement environment, focusing primarily on Captain Mike Odeon and Captain Joan Cortin, who must navigate a violent conflict against an extremist group known as the Brothers of Freedom. As the story unfolds, the protagonists deal with personal tragedy and the implications of serving in a complex and brutal society. The opening of the book introduces Captain Mike Odeon as he investigates a horrific attack on a convalescent hospital orchestrated by the Brothers of Freedom. It is revealed that one of the victims is Captain Joan Cortin, who suffers severe injuries and is left fighting for her life. Despite the chaos and violence surrounding them, both characters are determined to confront their adversaries, with Odeon stepping into the role of Joanie’s protector and advocate. The story sets the tone for a deep exploration of themes such as revenge, sacrifice, and the moral dilemmas faced by soldiers in a war-torn future, hinting at a significant arc for both characters as they seek to reclaim their agency and purpose amidst the devastation.
