The first two novels of the Sydney
Chambers saga together in one
volume for the first time!

FIRST OFFICER:
The slow-motion fall of the Terran
Confederacy threatens to take Sydney
with it as she is posted to a TSM ship
no better than the pirates TSM hunts...
and is then court martialed when she
manages to beard the beast!

CAPTAIN:
Settled in her new command, the
Cahan Morrigan, Sydney is sent to
fight real pirates ... and comes face to
face with an old enemy, one she had
helped drive from TSM a decade
before!
