Born into the Longknife legacy – daughter to the planet’s Prime Minister and granddaughter to two war heroes – Kris has chosen another path. She will not run for office like her father and brother. She is joining the Space Navy of the Society of Humanity as an ensign. No special favors from on high like those who refer to her family as “those Longknifes would expect of her.
And it looks like maybe she is getting all the worst assignments in the Navy. Her first deployment being a hostage rescue in a cabin that makes Fort Knox look like a piggy bank.
Shephard’s first in the Kris Longknife series is a great space opera. I will be reading the entire series (currently twenty volumes).
Shephard, Mike. (2021). Mutineer. New York: Ace Books
