Profits. Coffee. Extortion.
All in a day’s work.

When Ishmael takes the Chernyakova back into Toe-Hold space, he finds a lot more than profit.

A quick pass through the Telluride system reveals the answer to one question but leaves him wondering what to do next. Until the ship gets stuck without a cargo until the station owner makes him an offer he can’t refuse – to take a cargo to the pirate stronghold.

Where he learns that some will do anything to hide their secrets and everybody has a secret.
