Dipole

It's gonna be one of those nights. Drinks after work with a lady of the night who doubles as the woman of his dreams. Tinker can think of no better way to celebrate getting fired from another job. Again. Until her roommate turns up missing and he volunteers to hunt her down. Anything to get one step closer to his girl's heart. If you can't trust a hooker, who can you trust? Betrayed, backstabbed, and sold out, can Tinker find a way out of this new jam without getting popped out of an airlock?

All Tinker wants is some sweet loving from his favorite house of pleasure on the Space Hub. After a successful smuggling run, he's got some credit in his pocket and some naughty on his mind. But a mysterious woman pops into his session before it starts with a secret mission and, more important, a credit chip. Her sister is missing, and she wants the pilot to find her.

The prisoner. Mona Lisa O'Neil has a problem. She's in prison for crimes committed against the people with her gangster boyfriend. When she turned evidence against him, he tried to have her killed. Twice. Now he's threatening to blow up the Dipole Shield and kill 50 million people on Mars, unless they turn her over to him.
