Smuggling is supposed to be the kind of job where you're in, you're out, and no one ever knew you were there. Simple. Boring, even. But that's only when you're doing it right. Unfortunately, Avery and the rest of the crew of the Kingfisher have hit a snag, one in the form of a strange woman living in a hallway ceiling at Installation 23, and from there on out, it seems like they're ever only one jump ahead of the next guy looking to kill them. Increasingly enmeshed in complex politics and missing their blissful ignorance, the crew of the Kingfisher are going to have to make some hard decisions about what role they really want to play in galactic events, and just how far from their mundane world of weapons smuggling they're willing to venture. Climb aboard. The flight of the Kingfisher is about to begin.

There is no place in the universe that Carbon is afraid of. But Verona is the one place she swore she'd never return. The crew of the Kingfisher is ready to go live under the radar again. There is quite a decent life to be had, if you're a good smuggler, and Monte is better than good. The problem is that Carbon has been contacted by Bosh, a man from her old life, claiming that her home system is under attack. That her people aren't going to survive without - and probably even with - her help. Avery think's it's a trap, and Monte certainly doesn't trust Bosh. Savannah can't even figure out what war Bosh is talking about. But Carbon feels compelled by the call to protect her home and now, trap or not, the crew of the Kingfisher is heading into danger. Bosh may have built Carbon into a human weapon, and there's no doubt the man is good at what he does, but if he underestimates the crew of the Kingfisher they might yet win his game. Lock and load. The crew of the Kingfisher is headed to war.

The crew of the Kingfisher just want to get back to their normal life in the import/export business. Yes, they should have been heroes twice over, now, but no smuggler is looking for that sort of attention. Unfortunately, once you've fixed one impossible problem, people get the impression you can do any of them. So instead, Avery's getting chased by a dude with a spoon and Monte seems to be the go-to whenever the self-appointed galactic police have a suicide mission. The crew of the Kingfisher is on another not-entirely-voluntary mission, and this time the goal is rescuing peace. What can a hacker, an ex-soldier, an assassin, and a surfer do in the name of peace? Well, that's certainly going to be interesting to find out. Get ready to ship out, because there are no lazy days ahead. The crew of the Kingfisher is on the job.

"Let's go kill Bosh." When Harper flags a message on the back-channel system that leads to a couple on the run and wanted for mass murder the crew isn't sure what to do. The problem is, Carbon recognizes Alicette from her time with the Viperidae, and getting involved is going to bring them directly into conflict with Bosh. Bosh doesn't leave loose ends. There's more to this story than anybody knows, and the crew of the Kingfisher may be in for their most dangerous mission yet, if they're willing to commit to seeing it through. Well. It's not like they've walked away from a fight before, is it?
