Retrograde: A Space Novel (cover pending)

Gen Fakov is an island of sanity against an ocean of stupid.
Or something like that.
As the only successfully solo bounty hunter in the known universe, business is surprisingly slow.
Dead slow.
A strange man offers eight times her usual rate to investigate a derelict. No problem. Except it disappeared 50 years ago and strangely appeared on the underworld radar. The so called, FNS Impunity.
Of course Mordin Thane -- who owns said underworld -- wants it too.
But what's got everyone hot for this ship? What's onboard? A bomb? A gas? A blueprint to Shangri La? There's a reason it was lost with all hands.
But if the assignment is too much for her, there's always the added bonus of threats to her family.
The few people she could call family.
30+ commandos, perilous pitfalls, crippling psychosis, and a robotic mad hatter?
Can this day get any worse?
A golden calf on the verge of godhood.
Yeah, had to jinx it.
You hit rock bottom hard enough, you just plow straight through till you reach something hot, spicy that rhymes with bells.
