Spaceport: The Supernova Affair

Breaking News! The star Hygens will go supernova in less than three days and the population of Jones's World anxiously await rescue. Rescue ships are scarce and Peri Barberossa and Fyche, her faithful AI, are the first to make the mercy dash through the cosmos. Fyche is left planet-bound chasing an unexpected lead to Peri's mother while the award-winning sex reporter unwittingly takes on board a pair of ruthless terrorists. Hijacked and taken to Spaceport Adana, Peri, against her better judgment, helps her lover Silas Archimedes stay undercover and find out exactly what the terrorists are up to. The question is can she make it back to Jones's World in time to save Fyche before the star explodes and vaporizes the planet?
