Highwayman of the Void

Officially dead, Steve Nolan crosses Pluto's frozen wastes on a revenge mission that has kept him alive long after the world buried him. Framed in a corrupt trial and rescued only by the honor of Pete Petersen, he hunts Alan Woller, the man who helped destroy his life, through the dangerous currents of interplanetary commerce and betrayal. Nolan's hard-edged survival instinct is on full display when he bluffs his way aboard a stranded girl's skid, bargains for passage to Avalon, and fights a monstrous crawler to clear the trail, revealing a ruthless man still governed by a rough code of honor. In Avalon, Nolan follows the scent of money and fear to Petersen, then to the Hotel Elena, where he finds not Woller but the same mysterious girl, a sleeping witness who may be Woller's daughter. Before he can press her, Avalon's dome alarm throws the city into chaos, and Petersen arranges Nolan's escape while Woller abruptly changes course for Mars. Determined to finish the hunt, Nolan boards the Dragonfly, only to discover Woller aboard and ready for a deadly reckoning. As old betrayals resurface and the ship's hidden danger closes in, Nolan's quest for revenge becomes a desperate fight to expose the truth, reclaim his name, and survive long enough to go home.
