About the book
The guilty may try to escape, but they can never truly flee from the consequences of their actions.
Former Imperial officer Dirk is unconcerned with the background of his crew - whether they are fugitives, rebels, or rumored criminals - as long as they are skilled and don't pose a threat to each other. When a smuggling mission goes awry, he prioritizes survival over ability. And if one crime leads to complications, he believes another crime can solve it.
However, a failed robbery strands them in the icy wilderness of a frigid planet, forcing them to devise a new strategy. What mystery lies within the stolen containers? Who is willing to go to such lengths to obtain it? How can they turn a profit from their predicament? And what if his team is not as loyal as he assumed? Plus, why is that dog so distrustful of him?
If you enjoy tales of vast empires, noble adversaries, and witty banter, this adventure awaits your perusal.
