Human. Alone. Hunted. Tony Saviano's only ally is the unlikely love of his life.
When a lowly engine tech from a rust-bucket freighter finds himself the target for multiple assassination attempts, the race is on -- to find out who's after him, and why. To keep of out harm's way, fighting for his own life as well as thousands of people on a distant colony world.
Luck never favored Tony before the Dorellan cargo-hauler Ursago came to a half-forgotten rural spaceport on Amelos. In this galaxy, mankind is marginalized, disdained, often used. Now, Tony has one stroke of incredible good fortune: the love of his life -- brawny, beautiful, tech savvy, and as half-barbarian as his forefathers, Kenzana Emetral Betru. Tru for short.
Together, they're a single jump ahead of sudden death, while the reason lies buried in Tony's willful human memory. When the facts are winkled out, it's "game on" for a survival run among alien races, through alien systems, where time becomes the toughest enemy, friends are scarce ... and old-fashioned love is one of the keys to victory.
A knock-down, drag-out, planet-hopping romp in the spirit of Science Fiction's Golden Age.
