    About this ebook

    Alone in space, in a ship that shouldn't carry humans...

     

    The Sa'sa never travel with other species, but Saree is a special case, one that must remain secret. After folding space to a far-distant system, the girl wakes surrounded by her unconscious alien crewmates. To wake them, she must discover how and why they were incapacitated. But first, she must get the ship out of an asteroid field before they're pulverized.

     

    Saree doesn't know how to fly the ship; she can't even read the instruments. She needs help. She thinks the lives of the crew worth a breach of their trust, but will the alien Sa'sa agree? And if she calls for help, will anyone answer?

     

    This Lightwave prequel short story was previously published in The Expanding Universe 6.
