Into the Known Universe

Junior Reclamation Agent Stuart Bode is offered the promotion of his dreams (with a private office to boot) in exchange for a seemingly simple task: tracking down a stolen corporate freighter and recovering its cargo. If the cargo ain't recoverable his boss Asset Protection Commander Proseus Oort II growls terminate it. <br /><br />Stuart's simple assignment becomes decidedly less so when he finds the missing freighter only to discover that the cargo is none other than Janna Commander Oort's runaway bride. Hell-bent on seeing the stars she has no intention of allowing Stuart or anyone else to reclaim her no matter how spacious his new office is. <br /><br />Stuart is faced with a terrible choice: complete his assignment and secure his promotion or allow Janna to escape while he returns to Oort to face the consequences. <br /><br />He's still deciding when the pirates show up. <br /><br />Though their journey into the known universe is just beginning it's shaping up to be one hell of a ride.
