An all-new chapter in the "Battlestar Galactica" saga, Blood & Chrome takes place in the midst of the first Cylon war.

Though Adama quickly finds himself at odds with his co-pilot, the battle weary officer Coker (Ben Cotton, "Alcatraz"), the two men must set their differences aside when a routine escort mission with an enigmatic passenger (Lili Bordán, "Silent Witness") turns dangerous and becomes a pivotal one for the desperate fleet.
