They gave us the junk. We turned it into a weapon.
Cass Vero was the youngest chief mechanic in the Colonial Fleet. Then she told the truth. Now she maintains dead ships in a scrapyard at the edge of the galaxy.
Her only friend is the Rustbucket-a decommissioned corvette so old that 40% of its hull is corrosion. She talks to it like a pet. It answers with flickering lights and whispered words.
Cass Vero was the youngest chief mechanic in the Colonial Fleet. Then she told the truth. Now she maintains dead ships in a scrapyard at the edge of the galaxy.
Her only friend is the Rustbucket-a decommissioned corvette so old that 40% of its hull is corrosion. She talks to it like a pet. It answers with flickering lights and whispered words.
When the Fleet orders the Rustbucket destroyed, Cass does something stupid. She steals it.
The ship's rust isn't decay. It's nanites. It's memory. It's alive. And it's hungry.
Every time Cass uses the ship's power, she loses a memory. First her mother's face. Then her first kiss. Then the reason she's fighting.
Now she's hunted by the Masters-ancient aliens who harvest entire species. The Colonial Fleet wants her dead. And the rust is whispering a name she doesn't recognize.
Her own.
Eyes open. Hands empty. The hunt begins.
Rust Gambit: Unwanted is the first book in the Junk Fleet series-a military science fiction adventure perfect for readers of The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, and gritty space operas.
