Fata Morgana

The Tantamount is gone. Her captain dead, her crew lost, and Nel Vaughn is broken. Alone, on a world of distractions with a bitter Kelpie who won’t let her forget. On the Fata Morgana, indifferent to any survivors, a seven-tailed Kitsune whom some call mad moves towards his own goals. Of Draugr and golems and mist. And someone else Nel believes gone. The Black is a dark place, nearly as dark as the bottom of her drink. When Castor Sharpe comes crashing back into Nel's life, he brings something with him. A mission, a chance. Maybe even hope. But they’ll need a crew. And a new ship. She should have been the best, but Nel Vaughn forsake a career with the Alliance and now sails the Free Lanes on the Tantamount with its misfit crew and absent-minded captain.
