NOTE ON SCHEDULE  Due to needing serious revision, chapter releases are temporarily on hold. I'll get back to publishing when it is time. Thank you for reading! After months of recovery, James "Jimmie" Lauwers has healed enough to report to the Naval Academy at Nora. He's just one more cadet spacer; tall, lanky, and talks like a backwoods farmer. The cost paid for his entry still haunts him, and tragedy strikes again. The Mulgoi and their ship will be sold to the highest bidder if Jimmie can't help, but he has nothing left to give. Nothing but his life and his loyalty.
