After near disaster trying to escape the Transcend at the Grey Wolf Star, Jessica and the crew of the Sabrina find themselves thousands of light years from their intended destination, deep in the Perseus Arm, at one of the furthest colonized worlds in the galaxy.

Sabrina has taken heavy damage, Cheeky is in critical condition, and their supplies of antimatter and fusables are dangerously low.

The only system in sight? Controlled by the Orion Guard—their enemy.

It's going to take some quick thinking and smooth talking to get the ship repaired and figure out how they're going to travel clear across human space without being caught and destroyed by their now myriad enemies.
