Book Description
Leah is pregnant. She should not be pregnant. She is too old, why would any woman over 30 have sex with a man? Tieko Fawsen knew that he had an engine that could get a ship to travel faster than light. Shuekra Kilmose was an engineer he knew that no one could travel faster than light. The only hope for the crowded planet was to mine the others in the system. Chin Nick Oil knew that anyone traveling in Supraspace closer than 2 astronomical units to a star would blow up, themselves, the star, and anyone close enough. She suggests that the Lorili run away. If someone wants to blow themselves up that's their privilege. "By accident?" was the chief engineer's comment.
