A remote corner of a bleak system...A broken-down gunboat, stuck in space...An incompetent captain and a misfit crew...A pirate ship, a silent target, and a whole bunch of secrets...So how's YOUR day going?There have to be easier ways to make a living -- easier than dying slowly in an obsolete boat, as its power drains out and life support fails.

David Collins-Rivera makes his home in the high desert of Arizona.
