The Way Station Gambit

The Contingency War, Book 2

They think we’re beaten. They’re so wrong.

I am Captain Taylor Ray. Still reeling from the revelations of the Hedalt threat, my new ally -Commander Sarah Sonner - and I must pull off a daring heist to steal a vital piece of black-market tech from a heavily-guarded Way Station. Without it we have no hope of putting the contingency fleet together and no hope of fighting back against the Hedalt.

With a single ship, out-gunned and outmatched, Sonner and I must rely on our wits and unique abilities to outsmart the enemy and recover the tech. But between us and our prize are brutal racketeers, interstellar pirates with no qualms about murdering those who get in their way.

And to cap it all, Provost Adra is on our trail, tracking our ship through the threads of the Fabric in her formidable War Frigate, determined to stop us at all costs.

If we fail, we lose everything. And this time there are no second chances.
