Nine Lives to Midnight

Cathy Garcia - thief, heartbreaker, master of the impossible heist - has always played by her own rules. With a suit that talks back, twin pistols on her hips, and a ship named Nine Lives, she's danced through the shadows of the galaxy, stealing from the powerful, dodging the law, and never looking back. But something's changed. Her latest score unearths more than treasure - it brings her face to face with the life she's been running from, and the man who just might be worth slowing down for.From the slums of Nar Shaddaa to the penthouses of Risa, from long held grudges to Telerite dinner insults, Cathy navigates a galaxy where charm is currency and redemption is a moving target. Each artifact she returns is a chapter closed, a piece of herself reclaimed. But every laugh, every fight, every kiss pulls her closer to a truth she's never dared admit: the legacy of her past may not define her, but it won't disappear without a fight.Funny, romantic, sharp-edged and full of heart, Catfight: Nine Lives to Midnight is a sci-fi adventure where the greatest heist of all might be stealing a future worth living.
