Their budget is far smaller than the average property values, but when Cole notices a joint listing for Ingledene and the greengrocers in the high street, the price is too good to pass up.

For Smoke and Sally Jensen, the Sugarloaf Ranch is the American Dream come true. A glorious stretch of untamed land near the Colorado-Kansas border, it’s the perfect place to stake their claim, raise some cattle, and start a new family.

He’s come to warn them about a looming war with the Cheyenne Indians. And only he can save them from a bloody massacre—by launching a counterattack that’s even bloodier.

Acting on a recommendation from a former business associate, Saltair and Krenik travel to the Iguazu System. The deal promises to be one of their most lucrative yet. But upon their arrival, they find Outpost 47 completely deserted. Despite Krenik's reluctance, the pair land their ship on the moon's surface and begin exploring. There are no signs of struggle or death, and no bodies lie anywhere.

When Saltair and Krenik decide they need to start collecting more resources than the wider galaxy can now provide, they decide to head to the one place that nobody goes. The Sol System. In 2151, Earth was destroyed by a group of renegades known only as 'The Decimators'. Since then, multiple planets have died and crumbled, and gravimetric disturbances are off the scale. However, the area is rich in minerals. Enough to make the pair take early retirement.
