Successful traders Jake and Nadine are ready for some well-deserved relaxation when they return to Delta. But the shocking news of Dashi’s death throws them both into turmoil. Who killed Dashi? How? Why? And most importantly, how are they going to punish them?

The Galactic Empire disappeared a lifetime ago. Jake Stewart doesn't care, he needs to earn a living. He fled his station in the outer Belt, enrolled in the merchant academy, and snagged a scholarship.....

Kill a man and you're a murderer. Kill a million and you're a statesman. Dirk should have killed more people. Dirriken Friedel used his aristocratic connections to rescue his troops. He didn't plan on starting a war or killing them himself. Now he spends his days in jail, waiting for an assassin...

Jake tries hard, but spying is a tough job. When a botched pickup and a drunken indiscretion drop him in jail, he's sent to serve his sentence in the Milita....

Jakes back. He's older, wiser, and better dressed. He's going to be the coolest spy ever, then he fails his pilot exam. Disgraced, Dashi sends him out hunting missing food shipments. It's boring, but Nadine's shadowing him....

The guilty flee, but everyone pursues. Escaped Imperial officer Dirk doesn't care his crew are runaways, revolutionaries, and alleged criminals, as long as they're adequately competent and don't kill each other too often. When a smuggling job goes badly wrong and they improvise, he'll trade...

Vive la Revolution! None shall pass! Or get paid. Dirk Friedel used to be an Imperial Duke, now he's a washed up freighter captain. When a shady broker offers him easy money to steal some obsolete cargo and transport it off-planet, he and his crew of amateur thieves jump at the chance. Who'll...

Dirk and company can rest easy. The ship isn't listed as stolen, Dirk's warrant is cancelled, and in return they just have to do a tiny favor for Tribune Devin.

Fleeing a smashed rebellion and near execution by their supposed allies, Dirk, Gavin, Dena, and Ana abandon Scruggs and Lee during battle. When local medical treatment isn't enough, Lee surrenders to the Imperials and arranges to surrender to Devin's ship to save Scruggs's life.

The insurrection is over, and everybody lost. Except Jake—he's on the move with a new ship, a new destination, and a new crew—including some sexy francais girls! But his crew doesn't trust him....

There are shootings in space, fighting in the streets, and Nadine is being friendly....

The fighting may be over, but the war goes on. Quietly. Fighting doesn't always involve guns, and the upcoming elections for Imperial senate stress alliances that aren't up for much stress.

Jake and Nadine are searching for the last reported outpost of Imperial power. But times have changed since the abandonment. Bases are not where they should be, and people are where they shouldn't....
