The Ballad of Halo Jones meets Becky Chambers’ Wayfarers by way
of 3:10 to Yuma; a clash of law and lawlessness, storytelling and
truth in a headlong romp across the stars. After fifty years of
wreaking havoc across the galaxy, the outlaw Nine Lives – aka
Former General Gabi Ortiz – has finally met her match. Outgunned
at the system’s edge, she surrenders to the implacable
Inter-Planetary Marshal Dao Prynne, on one condition: she will go
quietly if, during the long journey to back to Prosper, she is
allowed to tell her story once and in full to the known worlds, to
ensure she is never forgotten. As Ortiz’s story unfolds, Prynne
realises she is no longer certain of anything, least of all
Ortiz’s guilt. And worse, powerful forces are determined that the
former General will not reach Prosper alive. Soon Prynne finds
herself protecting the very woman she intended to deliver to
justice. But unbeknownst to her, Ortiz has an ace up her sleeve,
and help – in the form of old friends – can arrive in the most
unexpected of ways…
