The runaway’s story comes to the fore, and it’s far more than anyone suspected. A frontier world. One Sheriff. And all the action one Spaceport can’t hold. SagCon’s Special Investigator gets comfortable plying the Mother Lode, but he didn’t come alone. Sparks fly when a second SI shows up, one from the sheriff’s sordid past.

Does the runaway’s grandfather want to protect her, or prune her from the family tree? Why is the second SI in town?

How far would you go for your family? Fans of Firefly, Bonanza, and Tombstone will love this space opera / western and all the characters that make the story great. Join us on the latest journey through Darklanding.
