Resumen del Editor

The third adventure of Jason Curtis, owner/pilot of the ship Starfire. After the events of "Renee," Jason finds himself lonely and pursued by associates of the terrorists whose plans he foiled. He's helped out by a seemingly harmless fellow who'd like Jason's help in looking for a missing friend of his own.

Of course, looks can be deceiving, and when they find something deep in interstellar space where it has no right to be . . . .

“What if my friend is there?” Vandemeer said.
“What? Why would she be? I doubt these guys are space pirates; I don’t see how that could possibly work. There’s no way to track a ship in warp. There’s no way to catch up with it and make it heave to.”
The words had just left my lips when there was a thud on the hull, the proximity alarm started blaring, and the ship-to-ship radio channel blared out: “Sapphire class vessel, you are surrounded. You cannot enter warp.” Whatever had just hit the hull would ensure that. “Heave to and prepare to be boarded.”
Vandemeer looked at me and raised his eyebrows. “You were saying?”
Aww, crap. “But we’re not in warp.” It sounded whiny even to me.
