Planet Dismolle is supposed to be a peaceful haven. So what's with all the gunfire?
A criminal gang has moved into Chirless, Dismolle's second major city. Elderly residents are fed up with the loud music, noisy cars and late night parties, not to mention hold-ups, muggings and the occasional gunfight.
Chirless has no Peace Force, so Harriet Walsh of the Dismolle City branch has to help out. That puts her up against a gang of hardened criminals with only her training pistol and a few old allies to lend a hand.
And these allies aren't just old, they're positively ancient!
It's a futuristic crime series with police investigations and a strong female protagonist.
