Dead Reckoning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781990142345)

Treason, loyalty, and revenge in the heart of deep space.

Captain Hollis Ives has gone up against pirates before-specifically, against Captain Mad Dog, the pirates' de facto leader. So when Naval High Command orders an attack on the pirate stronghold, Hollis knows damn well this mission won't be as simple as the Commodore expects. And that's not all-there's someone from the Level, maybe in the navy itself, who wants her very dead.

Former naval officer Silas Hunt wanted Mad Dog's help to take out the corruption in the navy. But her plans to strike back go far beyond any revenge he possibly could have dreamed up. Silas has to decide where his loyalties stand, and whatever he chooses, someone he cares for will die for it-either his former friends and crewmates in the navy, or the crew of the Sweet Jenny. And that's only if he survives the naval attack on Blackrock to begin with.

Treasure Island meets Master and Commander with a science-fiction twist in R.M. Olson's thrilling new space opera series, The Devil and the Dark.
