Nemesis Games

With the Rocinante under repair, the crew splits up. Naomi leaves without explaining and runs into her ex, Marco Inaros, and their son, Filip. Amos goes to Earth, and Alex heads back to Mars, where he teams up with Bobbie. Marco launches the Free Navy: he steals the last protomolecule sample, seizes Medina Station and drops stealth asteroids on Earth. Marco uses Naomi's voice in a fake distress call to lure Holden, but she fakes her own death, warns the ships and is rescued by Alex and Bobbie. The crew reunites. At the end, a rogue Martian faction led by Duarte turns out to be behind it all.
