Armstrong Station
D.M. Pruden [Pruden, D. M.]In space, helping a stranger can get you killed, or worse...
Armstrong Station is the busiest spaceport in the system where you can buy almost anything. Even a runaway slave.
Doctor Melanie Destin left Earth, desperate to make a new life for herself.
Now after finding a job as ship's surgeon aboard the interplanetary freighter, Requiem, her life is starting to look up for the first time in years.
But something unexpected happens on a routine stop at Luna's Armstrong Station which threatens to upend Mel's new life and put her and her crew mates in mortal peril.
When she chooses to help a runaway slave, Mel discovers that the young woman has a secret; one that will endanger anyone who encounters her.
Hunted by a corrupt government official intent on silencing them, Mel must find a way to get them off Luna and away from danger, all without drawing the unwanted attention of a powerful interplanetary crime czar.
