Still reeling from the fallout of their last job, Captain John Pitte and his crew are desperate for a clean run—and a paycheck. So when a routine passenger job comes their way, they jump at the chance.
But "routine" dies fast when one of the passengers is a spy, the Errant is grounded by a vicious storm, and a killer from Eitan's past bursts onto the scene.
Trapped by the storm and surrounded by ghosts—both literal and personal—the crew finds old wounds reopening, buried histories coming to light, and trust suddenly in very short supply.
For John, the timing couldn't be worse. Just as the possibility of something more with Jagati is becoming impossible to ignore, his own past threatens to get in the way.
And if the Errant's misfit crew can't pull together, surviving the storm may be the least of their problems.
Return to the CAS Errant, where the wins are rare, the engines tetchy, and the bickering epic.
Change of Fortune is the fourth book of The Fortune Chronicles, bringing the Errant's ragtag crew face-to-face with old ghosts, buried pasts, and new reasons to question who they can trust.
The Fortune Chronicles are character-driven science-fantasy adventures filled with airships, dracos, found families, and dangerous secrets, perfect for fans of the found families and rich worlds of Firefly and The Expanse.
