Inferno Squad will release later on July 25. In the meantime, read the official description of the novel, as provided by StarWars.com:

After the humiliating theft of the Death Star plans and the resulting destruction of the battle station, the Empire is on the defensive. In response to this stunning defeat, the Imperial Navy has authorized the formation of an elite team of soldiers, known as Inferno Squad. Their mission: infiltrate and eliminate the remnants of Saw Gerrera’s Partisans. Following the death of their leader, the Partisans have carried on his extremist legacy, determined to thwart the Empire — no matter what the cost. Now, Inferno Squad must prove their status as the best of the best and take down the Partisans from within. But as the danger intensifies and the threat of discovery grows, how far will Inferno Squad go to ensure the safety of the Empire?

In addition to Inferno Squad, Rogue One has received a couple other companion novels, including a prequel by James Luceno titled Rogue One: Catalyst, as well as a book by Alexander Freed based directly on the film with "new scenes and expanded material."
