The most potent part sent through the Ninefold Gate to the realm of death. All to prevent his ever returning to unmake the world he created.

Lyssa Peate has found a tenuous balance between her double lives - that of the planet-discovering scientist and the other: the space pirate bounty hunter Razia. No longer on probation, Razia still struggles to be thought of as more than a chocolate-fetching joke. But when the tough and feisty Lizbeth Carter interferes with a bounty, Razia's worried her act is being stolen.

Since she was a little girl, everyone - from her father to the Great Creator himself - told Lyssa Peate the same thing: she's worthless. But when she becomes the pirate bounty hunter Razia, she can see the price tag on her own head. Employed by one of the four pirate syndicates, she uses bank transactions and her considerable wits to capture rival members. At least, she would be if Razia's boss ever gave her a chance. It's a man's world, and all she's allowed to hunt are purse snatchers while she languishes on probation.
