He's given the job of third in command of the Behemoth, formerly known as the Generation Ship Nauvoo, which the OPA salvaged and repurposed as a warship. Carlos "Bull" de Baca is a former warfighter and friend to Fred Johnson.Even after capture, Clarissa remains dangerous. The scheme to get Holden discredited and then killed fails, because Holden decides to avoid all hostilities with the other flotillas and chooses to enter the ring instead. She places a saboteur on the Rocinante, then hijacks the ship's communications system to send a faked 'Jim Holden broadcast' in which an animated image of Holden claims the alien-protomolecule-ring for the OPA and responsibility for the sabotage and near-destruction of the UNN Earth vessel Seung Un. Now pretending to be an electrochemical technician named "Melba Koh", she sets out to get her revenge in a well-planned scheme. She has spent her entire fortune to change her identity and put the wheels of her plan in motion. She wants to discredit him publicly to redeem her father and plans to kill Holden afterwards. Clarissa wants revenge for the disgrace brought onto her family and the downfall of her father, for which she blames James Holden. The "Mao-Kwik" corporation was also destroyed by Jules-Pierre's actions and left the Mao family only a fraction of their former wealth. He was brought down by James Holden in the events that occurred during and after the near-destruction of the Ganymede colony, a major food supplier for the outer planets of the belt. Jules-Pierre was part of various conspiring organisations, all of whom wanted to use the protomolecule for profit. Clarissa Mao, younger sister of Juliette "Julie" Andromeda Mao and daughter of Jules-Pierre Mao, who was president of the multi-planet corporation "Mao-Kwikowski Mercantile" also known as "Mao-Kwik".Greater forces have other plans, however, and the crew finds themselves at the ring with fleets of Earth, Mars, and Outer Planets Alliance (OPA) ships. As the solar system prepares to mount its first large-scale exploration of the ring, Holden's interaction with the alien consciousness in the form of an old friend named Miller convinces him that he wants to be as far away from the ring as possible. James Holden and his crew have been successful in their ship-for-hire business, cashing in on their celebrity and Rocinante 's power when needed."The Ring" acted as a gateway to an unknown number of other worlds. When complete, the semi-intelligent collection of chemicals flew away from Venus and built a wormhole gate, called "The Ring", beyond the orbit of Uranus.
As part of the first incident, the alien technology crashed on Venus, where it churned for months doing something unknown while the solar system watched. James Holden and his crew on the salvaged Martian warship Rocinante played a role in two major events in human history: saving the Earth from the first direct proof of alien technology discovered in our Solar System, and saving as many people as they could when a new form of the technology appeared on Jupiter's moon Ganymede.
