From Book 1: 2018 NEBULA AWARD FINALIST: BEST NOVELLA

Floribeth Salinas O’Shea Dalisay is an Off-Planet Worker, employed as an exploration pilot by the giant corporation, Hamdani Brothers. Sent on a routine mission to analyze one of the millions of systems in the galaxy, she stumbles across something that could threaten humanity’s very existence. She barely escapes with her life, but in the process, has to shut down her scout’s AI.

As with all OPWs, she has few rights, and instead of being lauded as a hero, the corporation thinks she is lying. Her managers believe she found something valuable and shut down her AI in an attempt to hide that fact, hoping she can sell that information to the highest bidder. Grounded, and with a huge debt now over her head, Beth has to convince the powers that be that a very real danger to humanity is lying in wait out there in deep space.

Playing bodyguard for a grandma vacationing in Artemis City should be an easy day’s work for someone with Raj Demetriou’s skill set—but as the bullets begin to fly, Raj is starting to think he picked the wrong old lady to guard today.

Lasadi Cazinho knows there are harder people to rob than the head of Artemis City’s biggest criminal organization — but probably not many. Still, she’s up the challenge—until a series of mysterious assassinations have her scrambling for her life.

Raj and Lasadi may both be down on their luck. But as a series of near misses and close calls spin their futures into a collision course, that’s about to change.
