A captain, a commissar, and the ultimate crisis at 0.99 c:

If your propulsion system goes off-line, how can you slow down?

After decades of service, Captain Aalund has one final mission: tow a
wormhole to an enemy star system, then retire on a tropical beach.

Until enemy action knocks out the tractor beam generator back home. Now,
his ship can't slow down.

Can he find a way to save his ship and crew from dying of old age in the
depths of interstellar space?

What will he do if one of his officers refuses?
