Safekeeper Macy Steward is in a whole mess of trouble, again. This time it's mysterious visitors arriving in the middle of the night, a missing Guide, a baby that keeps getting away, and WAY too many aliens applying for the position of perimeter guard at the Greenmont Grith Business Center.
Still, none of this seems that bad. Not until there's a shot in the dark and a dead body to deal with. Now that is catastrophic and even Macy has no idea how to handle the situation. Especially since the Center has been put on Council Lockdown, trapping the murderer along with the rest of the guests! The clock is ticking and Macy needs to solve the case before anything worse happens... like more dead bodies or the Orbit Council showing up.
