1001 Revolution: Girl from Above

After Captain Caleb Shepperd escapes from prison, all he wants to do is keep his head down and earn a living smuggling guns and drugs through the nine systems. But, when a synth known as #1001 stows away on the captain's ship, bringing with her a ton of problems - including guilt-ridden secrets he thought he'd left behind - he'd prefer to toss her out the airlock. The problem is, she's priceless tech and he's fresh out of credit.

Caleb Shepperd knows Fran has her own motives for helping him escape prison, but he's not about to let a little thing like past betrayal stand in the way of his next paycheck. Until he's forced to meet with the sexy and psychotic pirate, Adelina Cande. They've met before. When he seduced her, cleared out her credit account, and left her for dead.

Taking the synth to the casino capital of the nine systems seemed like a great idea at the time, but as Caleb Shepperd's many enemies close in, he only has one way out. He must betray #1001. Caleb can't make the same mistake twice. Can he? #1001 has a price on her head. The Fenrir Nine and Chitec will stop at nothing to secure her secrets. The very same secrets that riddle her synthetic mind with faults. Her systems are failing. And the one man she's come to trust may prove to be her enemy. 

Caleb never wanted to be a hero. That was his brother's dream. Keep it simple, get away clean. Flying a ship packed with explosives into Janus orbit station isn't simple, and there ain't no way he's getting away clean. He knows the Fenrir Nine have sent him on a suicide mission, but he is not about to lay down his life for them. Caleb's not a hero, and he sure ain't no fool, despite what the Nine must think. There's another way, he just has to figure it out before the bomb he's carrying ticks down to zero.
