The Craton, damaged in battle, goes for repairs in the neutral territory known as Gohhi Station. This collection of independent space stations is the marketplace of the universe; home to the most wretched and the most obscenely wealthy beings in known space.

In this melting pot, friends and enemies abound on every level, and the Craton's presence is more than just for repairs; diplomacy and intrigue are the tools of the trade, as Brooks and Urle both must go undercover to discover dark secrets about this interstellar oasis. But on every level, cutthroat dealings can leave you rich or dead even at the hands of those you thought you could trust, even if you do everything right. Escape may be the only way out for those stuck here; though even that simple goal may be an impossible dream.
