BattleTech: Objective Raid by Russell Zimmerman

A PREDATOR STALKS THROUGH THE SNOW…

He is the Bearslayer. The one called Bjorn. Where the rest of his bandit crew live for loot or salvage, he lives only for the hunt. For the kill.

He has brought his raiders to the icy planet of Thule II, for what they think is another raid, albeit an oddly-extended one. Only Bjorn knows their real target. And soon, the Bearslayer will take the field of battle to fight as only he can…against a very real ghost from his distant past…
