Ghost World — Linda Andrews

Admiral Beijing York, his cyborg army, and the Neo-Sentient Alliance have liberated one world after another. Now, only the home territories of the Founding Five stand between Bei and the end of the war. With the bloodiest battles ahead, he's searching for a weapon powerful enough to force the Founders into unconditional surrender. The ancient ruins on an abandoned mining colony might just provide the answer. But when his wife, Nell Stafford, activates the archaic technology, she wakes a powerful enemy. One with a score to settle against humanity. As the tide of battle shifts in the Founders' favor, dark secrets will be unearthed, traitors will be exposed, and an alliance will be torn asunder.
