The Perseus Job: Book One of The Wit's End Arc
Baz and Keira are smugglers. Unfortunately, they’re not very good at it.
And they're definitely not heroes.
Their job is move cargo quietly, avoid attention, and keep the Wit’s End flying.
That was the dream.
Until a routine stop on Freeport Perseus turns into chaos.
Bounty hunters are chasing a mysterious assassin. Security is locking down the docks. And somewhere in the shadows, someone is building something that shouldn’t bioengineered soldiers designed to be sold to the highest bidder.
When Baz and Keira get dragged into the mess, walking away isn’t an option. Now they’re caught between ruthless bounty hunters, powerful corporate interests, and a conspiracy that reaches far beyond one space station.
All they wanted was a foot on the ladder.
Instead, they’ve found themselves in the middle of something deadly.
And getting out alive might be the hardest job they’ve ever taken.
