A murder on Phobos. A plot to destroy Martian independence. It’s time for Radrick Siegn to take out the trash.

The Fleet gave Siegn a second chance as a criminal investigator. When a woman with ties to Mars’s most-feared gang is murdered on Phobos, he has to prove he can do the job.

Shouldn’t be too hard. After all, he knows these guys from way back. Just gotta hope the boss doesn't find out about Siegn's unorthodox methods …

But the investigation takes a dangerous turn when outsiders try to frame a Martian billionaire. Now Siegn must find and punish the true criminals, from the luxurious orbital habitats of the rich, to the corrupt recycling industry, and even on the dust-choked surface of Mars. If he fails, Mars may lose its independence—and he’ll definitely never be able to buy a new piano.
