   Summary

   Andrine "Andy" Tønne-Lykke has three things going for her: a half-finished epic about Naomi Nagata, her mother's fermented pepper paste, and the worst luck in the Belt.

   After building a theater company on the colony world of Skagafjord, Andy needs one thing to finish her life's work—a ride on the Rocinante. What she gets instead is a one-night stand with a mechanic who turns out to be Amos Burton, a crash course in hard burns, and a front-row seat to something very wrong on an alien swamp world.

   Part literary ambition, part disaster romance, entirely The Expanse.

   She came to write the Belt's first epic. She didn't plan on the mechanic.
