On the starship X-87, a volatile crew of renegade Venusians and swaggering Martians navigate the vast expanse of space.

As the X-87 hurtles through the cosmos, Penelle must confront the treacherous machinations of his captors and unravel a web of intrigue that threatens to ignite an interstellar conflict.
