Updated and Revised When a mining colony's AI goes dark and three workers go missing, Captain Rhea Harrison takes the contract. Double pay, no rival crews. Classic signs of a job that's worse than advertised. Now Rhea's crew, six people in an aging ship with a sarcastic AI and a rookie who can't stop breaking things, is trapped between a military drone swarm and a conspiracy that reaches the Colonial Authority. They're not soldiers. They're not heroes. They're just very good at their jobs, and walking away would mean leaving the colonists behind. That's not something the Rustbucket's crew will do.
