Book Overview
Gwen Shepherd Davis wants to rebuild a forgotten spaceport. A ruthless corporation wants to take it from her. Losing means losing everything she's fought to build.
When ex-corporate exec Gwendolyn "Gwen" Shepherd Davis walks away from the corporate maze, she buys an abandoned spaceport and stakes everything on making it work. But in a galaxy where power plays are scored with ship cannons and corporate espionage, Gwen's dream of independence won't just be challenged - it'll be taken hostage.
Space pirates circling the trade lanes. A rival firm itching to claim her port. A ghost from Gwen's past who bears a deadly grudge. And a team of misfit allies who must prove that one woman's grit and one rust-belt station can stand up to the high-stakes universe.
Fast-paced, sharply-witted, with characters you root for and villains you love to hate, The Spaceport Gambit delivers gritty space-opera thrills with a heart and a grin.
