GET READY TO BLAST OFF with the Gray Lady herself, Augusta “Gus” Light, and the space cowboy Mephistopheles Drake on their most exciting adventure yet!

Just when our heroes thought it safe to take a little well-deserved alone time, a long-buried secret from Gus’s past rears its ugly head.

A secret that could spell the end of her relationship with Drake.

Deep within the heart of the Alliance, an unscrupulous man has set in motion the final steps in his lifelong question for power. A long game that requires one last prize to make it happen.

An object of immense size and power thought lost forever in the far reaches of the Frontier.

An object a ruthless alien species will do anything to seize for themselves.

An object that Gus and Drake must retrieve or face the destruction of everyone and everything they hold dear.

Against a deadly backdrop of political gamesmanship, Gus and Drake find themselves fighting not only a deadly new alien enemy but also the most unprincipled power brokers within their own Alliance.
