Publisher's Synopsis
Things are finally looking up for Jregli. She's now an adult, with the new name Jrg'ella, running a business, officially adopted by two families, and in charge of her former Master. But she's ignored certain matters back on Yerba Home for too long, and someone decides to take matters into his own claws. Jrath'bwe once lost the n'n 'Ovvunnith fortune to his younger brother, Shdr'edno, and he's not about to let an interloper steal it away again. Secretly traveling to Fredan Sector Station 5, he sets a careful plan into motion to reclaim his rightful inheritance from the mysterious new Heir. With him are a trio of hired muscle, who happen to be Wind Brothers with their own motives for investigating the new Lady 'Ovvunnith. Commander Frank Neim works hard to keep the Station running smoothly. New rumors arise, linking the ever-present smugglers to a terrorist cell of religious fanatics. With the focal point of a new religion headquarters on FSS5, Neim can only brace himself for a fight. Truth and justice don't factor into battles for inheritance or dominance, and Jrg'ella now has too much to lose to run away. Even with all her new found freedom, will she have enough Space to Run?
