Three for the Blood

Officially, Kaelen is dead. In the Swarm, the dead don't get air.

He has his ship's name back, but without a place on the air tithe rolls he can't rent a bunk, open an account or get his dead mates' families the money they rely on. Only the Sabrane family can give him air again, and their price is a job: find out who is killing their vats and calling it vat-rot.

The deeper he digs, the more people want him gone. A Warden is still coming. Talonis has gone quiet, which is worse. And Kaelen still hasn't found a good way to tell his navigator how he feels.

A sabotage mystery in the halls that make the air, a found family stretched thin, one stammering cybrid dog-fox, and a slow burn nobody aboard will name.
