Synopsis

To save her people, she will destroy everything. An exciting sci-fi assassin and heist thriller set thousands of years in the future, in a time when humanity has spread through the stars. Everyone wants Heather Kilgore dead, even those she once called friends. Pursued by her own agency, she flees to the Outer Rim, where she’ll attempt one last time to put an end to a war that will kill billions. Her target: an interstellar arms manufacturer bent on destabilizing the Fringe and Heather’s star nation for profit. But she won’t be able to do it alone. Helped by a fast-talking pilot, an ex-MMA champ, a cunning con artist, a brilliant engineer, and a devious hacker, Heather will attempt the impossible: take down a company with its own private army… on their home turf. An exciting heist adventure with an ensemble crew of misfits. From fights with pirates to spy games on city streets to infiltrating the most secure facility in the Outer Rim, the non-stop action will have you on the edge of your seat. Set in the reader-favorite universe of Dumb Luck and Dead Heroes and The Worst Ship in the Fleet , this series will delight readers of sci-fi and technothrillers. Read or listen today!
