The fourth and final installment of the “Finder Chronicles”, a hopepunk sci-fi caper described as “MacGyver” meets “Firefly”, by Suzanne Palmer.

Fergus is the ransom for a kidnaped friend, taken by Bas Belos, one of the galaxy's most dangerous space pirates, as bait to force Fergus' assistance in finding Belos' missing sister. Reluctantly joining forces, Fergus discovers that Belos is himself being tracked by the Alliance. And seeking to stay one step ahead of the Alliance, Fergus and Belos find themselves on the other side of the Gap between spiral arms of our galaxy, near to alien territory, and with an Alliance ship in hot pursuit. That's just the beginning. Fergus will find himself in the middle of four way negotiations with the future of spaceflight, of Belos' sister, and Fergus' ride home all hanging in the balance.
