The life of a freelancer is to be a slave to the credit - forever chasing the next job, taking risks and avoiding debt collectors. Starship Starstrel is a working ship. She is old, but tough. She is battered and beaten and held together with ship’s tape and prayers. Captain Bryn Golmo is in command of a crew of over fifty souls. They are a fine crew, a crew to be proud of, but nobody is perfect. Trading and mining are all very good, but military contracts pay the best. Of course, they are deadly dangerous. Luckily the Starstrel was made to take a beating. Now she faces her greatest test yet.
The Galstar Industries Federation of Planets is home to trillions, each of whom is born a shareholder. When the Starstrel is broken and out of credit, her captain is forced to accept a secret mission to find a missing agent in a dirty xenosentient system. Joining the crew is an odd purple-eyed woman who is both out of place and unwelcome having been forced upon them by a Federation secret service. The Empire is expanding and has no intention of letting the ceasefire with the Federation halt its plans for galactic domination. Rebellion is brewing again. Galactic war is close to restarting. Captain Golmo is just trying to survive.
