Junker's Moon Series

Book 4 - Junker's Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company has the dubious honour of being visited by a cult ship, The Garden. The vessel is registered as having charitable status and is therefore beyond FBIS jurisdiction. Its owner, Pastor Gripthorne, holds captive more than one hundred female followers, and is set on a direct course to cause trouble with a capital 'T'.

Book 3: Junker's Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company is in a state of turmoil and uncertainty, following the grievous wounding of its proprietor, Marshall. He hovers close to death having been stabbed by Vanessa Longtail, the notoriously vengeful wife of space pirate Dirk Knight. Finding she had not succeeded in murdering Marshall, as had been her intention, she returns to finish the job.

Junker's Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company had never been attacked before but that didn't mean its base of operations was unprepared. Marshall Brion began the day with no idea that within a few hours he would need all the concentrated expertise of three generations of Brions. Space pirates were inbound to the station. They were something to be feared but also to be repelled at all costs.

Junker's Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company had a surge in popularity following the capture of notorious space pirate Dirk Knight. What Marshall, proprietor of Junker's Moon had not bargained for was the thirst for revenge and ferocity of Dirk's wife, Vanessa Longtail. But first there was the question of what to do with Knight's ship which contained an arsenal of weapons all of its own. 'Marshall,' Lucy said with mock severity, 'if you want me to work on that dreadful ship, you will have to change its name.' 'Dreadful?' Marshall said with surprise. 'Terrible things were done on board that ship, did you not notice the patches and splashes of dried blood?'

Marshall Brion, owner of Junker's Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company thought he had seen a ghost when FBIS agent Vanessa Robin came to make an arrest. Months ago, he had seen pirate Vanessa Longtail killed before his eyes, yet now her name was different and she was in the uniform of a law enforcement officer, who not only failed to recognise him, but had no apparent desire to end his life. It was a puzzle Brion felt compelled to solve but he had no idea that the circumstances were at least as troubling to Vanessa herself.

Inspector Vanessa Robin and Melanie must accept a gift from Head Office, no matter how unwelcome it is. Days later Vanessa receives a visitor who, as an old foe, is even more unwelcome. On Junker's Moon Lucy and Theodore lose their crops, while a mysterious plant disease threatens the livelihood of the farmers, and consequently the viability of the whole colony.

Inspector Vanessa Robin was tormented by one thing more than anything else from her past: that her ruthless pirate husband was held in a top security jail for his crimes. Until she stood face to face with the man who had led her through years of murder and mayhem, she would never feel truly free. Vanessa's attempt to gain access to the prison's remote location would have deadly repercussions reaching all the way to Junker's Moon.

Vanessa Robin looked deeper into her shady past, studying news files of her exploits as a space pirate. Her ex-boss Ravenheart and a Doctor Sychs had conspired to destroy her memories by cutting out whole sections of her brain but as Vanessa became more aware of the person she had been before, she grew more determined to exact retribution on those who had done her harm.

The Junker's Moon long range scanner picks up a ship flying under a notorious tag of convenience. The Lancer, owned by Captain Jack Hacket, lands with only fumes to run on and five hundred refugees on board, twice its registered capacity. When they leave the ship, Hacket's mercenaries enclose the refugees in a stockade and Junker's Moon finds it no surprise that Hacket is wanted for trafficking. When two ships carrying Hacket's associates show up inbound at high speed, Marshall is certain that his problems are about to multiply.

At the Junker's Moon depot, Marshall's workers are bent on a pay rise, rebelling at increased prices and rumoured pirate attacks. In the midst of the turmoil, a vessel arrives piloted by a woman with a mysterious tale of a prospecting ship, the Rudderless Junk. She insists that the ship resides in the depot scrap heap, and demands to speak with David Brion, who has been dead for several years.

The Junkers Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company have side-stepped interference from the interstellar Bureau, but the team needs to take greater risks to find out more about the alien ship excavated on Cymbeline. The search for translations begins at an abandoned colony and leads from one obscure planet to the next. Will they find what they are looking for, or something completely unexpected? Sequel to Junkers Moon: Lucy And The Quantum Gnarls

What does an unconscious former employee of the Junkers Moon Scrap, Salvage and Servicing Company have to do with a massive smoking metal artefact sitting in a field?
