Chapter One
By the time Kieran dodged his fourth set
of patrollers, he started to get pissed off.
Sure, send Kieran down to the dock-
yards. If the patrollers catch me, all I have

coveralls. From all this dirt, light gray-green
eyes stared up at him with a glare attempting
to mask absolute terror.
The patrollers stopped next to the freight-

He hunkered down next to her in the shad-
ows, and wisely, the young woman shut up.
She stank like she’d been crawling
through waste ducts, and her matted hair
