LIVING IN THE STARS IS EVERYTHING HE IMAGINED, AND THEN SOME It all starts when a navigator on Ash's Trade Starship the Strand is found dead in a murder made to look like a suicide. Everyone is suspect and Ash and his Second race to find the killer before they strike again. All while running narcotics throughout the galaxy and avoiding pirates and the Trinity forces that want the Trade eradicated. Kiri Hitori has it all, a well paying job, a place of her own and a fiancée with a promising career. Until she runs into a man that changes everything for her. Her life crumbles around her as she discovers she has a gift that feels more like a curse until she figures out how to manage it. Noble has settled into a comfortable life as Senator and President of Caledonia. He adores family time and occasionally wishes that his son's Porter and Doran were home more. Ashby is only a momentary thought as most people believe he died of an overdose on Tantic. He and Lyris are enjoying their empty nest and near retirement. On a dark evening on the planet Hua, Ash and Kiri see each other again for the first time in thirteen years. That night sets the final stanza of the Black Star Parchment in motion and everyone that knows Ash from that moment on will be thrown into the world of impending prophecy. Even after working for the other side for ten years, loyalty is moot and betrayal could be waiting at the next star port.
