SynopsisMaster and Commander in space Brilliant and brave starship captain Daniel Leary and ace spy Adele Mundy confront a pirate plot and once again save the Republic of Cinnabar despite itself. #9 in the national best selling RCN space adventure series. Captain Daniel Leary with his friend-and spy-Officer Adele Mundy are sent to a quiet sector to carry out an easy task: helping the local admiral put down a coup before it takes place. But then the jealous admiral gets rid of them by sending them off on a wild goose chase to a sector where commerce is king and business is carried out by extortion and gunfights. With anarchy and rebellion in the air, a rogue intelligence officer plots the war that will destroy civilization and enlists the help of a brute whom even torturers couldn't stomach. And, of course, it's up to Leary and Mundy to put a stop to the madness.

Fans of Patrick O'Brian's Maturin and Aubrey novels will enjoy this intricate, rousing space opera." - Publishers Weekly About David Drake's RCN series: " R]ousing old-fashioned space opera." - Publishers Weekly "The fun is in the telling, and Mr. Drake has a strong voice.
