AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The ship's doctors are a new class of professional, medicos with implanted intuition for the organic mega-spacestations of the future. It's an ability that comes with loneliness, and strange compulsions. Still, this should have been an easy job: just a trip to the furthest-flung blue-class station for a basic malfunction. What the Doctor finds is a dead colleague, an infected core and Riley, a grafted flight engineer who knows something about her past. What follows is quarantine, a mercenary coup, and threat to spread the infection across the verse. Will the she make it out? Or sacrifice all for the station?'
