The cover for the future Daphne Blazefire book titled “Dust Bargain” has arrived.

I’ll begin work on this book as soon as Frozen Logic is published.

Blurb:

When space hauler Daphne Blazefire answers a too-good-to-be-true shipping ad, she figures she can risk a little fuel for a big payday. The reviews on the job listing all gush about massive payouts and zero risk. But the moment she lands on Reckon’s End, she’s offered a payout that doesn’t even cover her cargo’s cost.

Worse, the sheriff, an old-world lawman with too much authority and too few morals, reminds her that the contract she signed says she has to take it… or spend time in the local lockup.

But Daphne’s not one to back down, especially when the whole town is in on the con. In a place where everyone keeps their head down, one stranger offers to talk. What Daphne learns could bring down “The Company,” or get her killed trying.
