A wonderful return to the Beltrunner saga. After the events of Beltrunner, Collier South has hit his lowest; his job is in shambles, his ship and best friend are lost to him, and he's drifting through life - until he gets one last chance to make things right.

Disclaimer: I've always been a fan of science fiction with a noir twist, and the Beltrunner saga delivers, with a pitch-black setting surrounding the inner Solar System populated by people who are just grim enough to be interesting, while still being compelling and sympathetic. A hearty recommendation from me.
