It is starting to look like someone has cursed Lance to live in interesting times. As a Jack Of All Trades danger is not stranger to Lance, but events that could lead to his death have been increasing like never before
The first indication of something strange happened when a giant swamp creature escaped its cage on the ship Lance was captaining. It killed two of Lance's men while it stomped down the same passageway Lance had gone to check out a problem. Next a Lance's starship loses coolant and he has to set down on a farm owned by cannibals. When he gets home he is told that a law enforcement agency has placed a bounty on him for a crime he didn't commit. After that a crime boss chases him down for another theft Lance didn't do. His ship's computers are compromised, warbots attack him as well as other dangers.
Lance Starhammer—not his birth name—is well known in some circles, even though many of his jobs he keeps secret. He has run cons, hauled passengers and freight, done special jobs, ran blockades, a bit of smuggling, computer crimes and other jobs that he feels need doing.
He has been beaten, gone on military missions that have gone bad, but has never been in a period of his life where so many things went wrong one of the other. He has to figure out, among many, who cursed him. The chances of his survival to accomplish that goal are getting slimmer, headed toward zero. Along the way Lance finds himself slipping into melancholy when he finds the task is near impossible. Which is a dangerous mood to be in when someone wants to play with you then kill you. He finally ends up in a battle with stealth ships crewed by a law enforcement agency who have been tricked to believe he is responsible for the deaths of their fellow agents. Even with his ship, tricks and quick thinking his chances for survival have slipped to near zero.
