Jumping the Jack
In space, no one can hear your warranty has expired...
Sam and Hannah, husband-wife starship engineers, are dropped into a forgotten space station roiling with savage aliens, xenophobic colonists, and rogue robots. Hunted and hated, they discover a miraculous pod-world turned inside out - and in danger of flying apart. Drafted as repairmen, they cobble fixes as earthquakes worsen, fires rage, and Union Marines invade. And when all hope is lost, Sam and Hannah face their toughest task: get everyone to cooperate - or everyone dies.
"Lightning-paced adventure... dangers, battles, chases, tension... Solid."
