Rushell Rusty Hayes used to take any job that paid.
Not anymore.
Now she flies Perseus, a fast, heavily modified hunter built for the kind of contracts that make sensible people suddenly remember other appointments.
The money's better.
The risks are worse.
And that's exactly how Rusty likes it.
Then a routine job goes sideways.
A missing ship leads to another.
Then another.
Entire crews are vanishing beyond the edges of known space, leaving behind drifting wreckage, broken signals, and far too many unanswered questions.
Most hunters would walk away.
Rusty starts asking questions.
With Trax, an ex-cop who sees trouble coming a mile away, and Crunch, an android whose faith in human judgment remains deeply misplaced, Rusty follows the trail into a web of deception, outlaw technology, and a predator unlike anything she's ever faced.
Because something is out there.
Something fast.
Something intelligent.
And something that has already decided that ships like Perseus are prey.
A fast-paced science fiction thriller packed with bounty hunters, outlaw tech, dangerous mysteries, sharp humor, and a crew stubborn enough to chase answers long after survival would suggest otherwise.
Live by the gun.
Because the universe cheats.
