The Drift Scout's Debt

Civilization is nothing but wreckage. The strong take what they want. The weak don't last long. After decades in the Drift, Vephet has learned a few things the hard way:?? Debts are never forgiven.?? The Tea Barons own everything.?? Hesitation will always get you killed. So when a Market Cart carrying the most valuable resource still in circulation crashes into the ruins, she goes after it. She may be old, but she's not dead yet.
And she has a debt to pay. The cargo is worth more than her life. The mercenaries closing in don't take prisoners. And the shattered wreck she's standing on is seconds away from collapsing into the abyss. Vephet doesn't have a choice. She either takes the risk, or she dies trying. From Liz Blackburn comes a gritty, pulse-pounding dystopian sci-fi novelette for fans of The Expanse, Firefly, and Snowpiercer.
