Summary
Book 5
in the award-winning Liaden UniverseÂĀ saga. Stirring space adventure from master
storytellers Sharon Lee and Steve Miller. Space ships, action, adventure âÈ' all
tied together with a strong dollop of romance and intrigue âÈ' make this a
compelling series for a wide range of readers, from romance to military SF
lovers.
First
Class courier pilot Theo Waitley was already known as a nexus of violence âÈ' and
then she inherited the precarious captaincy of a mysterious self-aware ship
designed to serve a long dead trader. Now she has a trade route to run for Clan
Korval while she convinces the near mythic ghost ship Bechimo âÈ' and
herself âÈ' that she wants to commit herself as the human side to their immensely
powerful symbiosis. While her former lover battles a nano-virus that's eating
him alive, she's challenged to rescue hundreds of stranded pilots and crewmen
from an explosive situation in near orbit around a suddenly hostile planet.
Lovers, enemies, an ex-roomie, and a jealous spaceship are all in peril as Theo
wields power that no one in the universe is sure of, especially her.
