The first Arkle Wright novel.
Arkle Wright is a sweary, lardy, beardy smuggler bombing through space on a wish and a prayer. He smuggles whatever he gets his greasy hands onâ€"the only question for his clients being ‘where to?’ and ‘how much?’ His only attachment in the universe is his ship, the Navaplastas, which he treats with a scary level of dedication and, dare say it, love.
However, when he finds himself caught up in a dirty bar fight, at least a dirtier one than usual, and he botches his latest smuggling job, he finds himself wanted by both the Fritten Space Authoritiesâ€"responsible for policing the universeâ€"and the most notorious mobster in the galaxy: Radley.
As he somehow attempts to evade their clutches, he finds himself coming face to face with other outcasts of the universe, and forced into rethinking his once solitary life as a space smuggler. And, in the end, he might just need all the help he can get if he’s to survive because . . .
Smuggling ain’t no easy path.
