  Even a Ghost Can Die
  
  
  Deep within an ancient bunker, the Desert Rangers uncover the secret to
  defeating the Base Cochise AI, the crazed computer responsible for spawning
  the killer robots terrorizing the Arizona wastes. But the secret is hidden
  under a mountain, and protected by a cult known as the Guardians of the Old
  Order, who hate everything the rangers stand for.
  
  
  As the Rangers fight the Guardians, Ghost, the clone of a clone of a ranger,
  fights a battle of his own. Should he continue to help the friends of the man
  he used to be? Should he sacrifice himself to save humanity? Why bother, when
  the only person who treats him with any humanity at all might not be entirely
  human herself?
