Jespa - The Space Trader: A Science Fiction First Contact Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798290402819)

An old trade ship upgraded into something special, a diverse crew, and a bevy of problems!

Captain Mead sold his home and quit his banking job to venture across the solar system. He wanted to raise his children amongst the expansions of humanity, trading between Earth and Pluto. A decade later, only his space faring daughter Monica remains on the crew, eager to inherit the helm or find her own ship to captain and with business on the upswing, it's time to hire.

When an overqualified young man lands on his ramp eager for work, he ignores the shady history on his resume, especially since his past has its own flaws. The instant Tartov sets foot on Jespa, nothing is the same even if life seems mundane at first. After a boring decade of living as a trading merchant, the Sol System heats up in more ways than one.

A war brews between two powerhouses, markets destabilize, and mysterious hints from government agents leave Captain Mead rushing to make profits before the powder keg explodes.

Join Captain Mead and Jespa's crew as they navigate the Sol System in this exciting book that is part thriller, slice of life, and a first contact adventure.
