Melvina

Book II - Ramona's Revenge

Aldrich Wishart, an established smuggler, captains the Melvina across the colonies in the Leo Constellation. When taken by a former lover, no one is sure who within the crew will step forward to secure his release. Against this backdrop Lady Tisserande finds her power within the constellation challenged by increasingly heavy-handed Imperial rule. The presence of the Emperor’s battlecruisers shift the balance of power in this remote sector of space against her cabal. Turning to Captain Wishart, she plays him as a high valued card in a game of increasing stakes. Will she be the last of her line to command the Leo Constellation Privy Council? Can the Melvina survive direct engagements against the galactic fleet assembling at New Earth? One thing is clear, not all within this tangled web will survive.
