Horns and Halos. Black Ocean: Passage of Time, #9

Before you play the game, know which side you're on. Captain Jessie Ramsey has brought the starship Arete to the hostile Eyndar Empire. She and her crew have traded the complexities of the Earth/Mars wars for the open hostility of a species that will shoot them on sight. Their anti-piracy mission has evolved. Rather than simply clearing the star lanes for peaceful merchants and civilian transports, they're going after an illicit trade in sentient laborers.
It's all going fine until one of the traffickers they capture reveals the location of a black market space station that makes their own operation look like small potatoes. With a raid to plan and a space station full of enslaved people to liberate, the nice clean moral line blurs. An extraction operation on a grand scale, Captain Ramsey must contend with civilian bystanders, the safety of her own boarding parties, and the very people she's there to save all being in the line of fire.
And that's all before a mysterious second strike team arrives with an agenda all their own. Horns and Halos is the ninth mission of Black Ocean: Passage of Time, a science fantasy series set in the late 26th century. What if Futurama jumped 5 years ahead instead of 1000? What if Doc and Marty lost the car keys? What if Bonnie and Clyde were siblings instead of lovers? Passage of Time jolts the Black Ocean universe forward into new adventures and new perils with a new cast of zany misfits trying to outsmart the galaxy just to get by. Strap in and hold on tight. Passage of Time is the latest series in the Black Ocean universe, and it's an action-packed, mystery-filled, madcap ride across the galaxy!
