If Torian Razner was taking bets on how her afternoon would go, “getting stranded on the nylarian homeworld” wasn’t even in the running. (Moss had it listed as Possibility #3,794, but no one asked for its opinion.) And yet, Verdaan’s surface is exactly where she finds herself, standing in a grassy field alongside (her definitely-not-girlfriend) Amelia Perrosk.

Torian didn’t ask for this, but she’s been needing a vacation—and she certainly won’t complain about forced proximity with Amelia. As they venture across an alien landscape in search of a way home, things heat up between them, and Torian can’t quite remember the reasons they shouldn’t be together.

Amelia can never forget, though. Before they were stranded, her quartermaster issued a warning: get back to their ship in three days, or Opula would tell their entire smuggling syndicate about Torian’s new, very unprotected human colony. With time ticking and no true escape, Torian and the gang will have to use every resource to stop Opula.

Fortunately, they have Moss on their side—and it’s thrilled to its rhizoids to try this human concept of blackmail. Opula won’t know what hit her.

Probably.
