Nugent had slipped away. There was some hope he had died in the desert, but Chan was pretty sure the slippery bastard was still out there. He had a strong suspicion that he and Nugent would meet again.
In the meantime, he had his crew, a paying passenger, and the ship was his again. He looked down at the Raven and murmured, "Next stop, Mars."

Voyage Six, Last Sunset on Mars, is coming in January of 2016.
I'm also the author of Star Raider, a serial now collected into one volume, available from Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W0E1KOO. Cassandra Marx is a thief, and a good one. This time she got greedy, though. She swiped a priceless artifact from Carmody, the most powerful man on Hesperus. He's been beating his daughter, Lark, so Cassie took the kid too.
Now Carmody is tearing the galaxy apart hunting Cassie down. The artifact isn't just a priceless relic of a lost civilization. It's the key to a galaxy-wide conspiracy. Cassie needs to figure out the significance of the ancient egg, but with bounty hunters and mercenaries hounding her from one end of the galaxy to the other, she and Lark have another puzzle to solve -- how to stay alive.
