The crew of the Iron Vyper are on the run…
In the seedy underworld of the Seven Civilised Systems, connections are currency, and secrets are a resource.
But sometimes connections come with a cost, and secrets aren’t worth the price of keeping them. It’s a lesson the crew of the Iron Vyper—framed for a crime they didn’t commit, and on the run from enemies they didn’t even know they had—are now learning the hard way.
Pursued by both authorities and criminals alike, the crew—a captain torn between regret and redemption, a former soldier fleeing from his failures, a shipmate with history hidden even from herself, and a hitchhiker who sells secrets for a living—find themselves on the fringes of a vast conspiracy, as they struggle to clear their names and uncover the truth behind the brewing conflict.
But secrets don’t surrender without a fight, and winning one battle could risk starting a war.
