Red Lights
(A Chronicle of the Pirates of the 24th Century)
Book Four of the History of Piracy in the 24th Century

Before she became the most feared pirate in Sigma Draconis, she was simply 349: a rookie security officer walking the crowded night decks of Gandy Station. Red Lights reveals the year that shaped her-long before the raids, the mutinies, and the battles that would define her legend.

Assigned to the volatile sector known as Red Lights, 349 learns the rhythms of a deck where dancers, dock crews, augment laborers, and desperate migrants all survive under failing corporate systems. Under the steady guidance of her senior partner, Beth-Ann, she navigates street violence, dust addiction, corporate maneuvering, and the daily quiet tragedies of orbital life. Here she meets the figures who will reappear throughout her career-commanders, rivals, and allies whose paths first crossed hers in unguarded moments amid neon light and narrow corridors.

Red Lights offers an intimate look at the rook year of a future pirate captain, tracing the early instincts, loyalties, and fractures that would one day lead her away from the corporation she served. Dense with world-building, character history, and the raw atmosphere of a living orbital, this volume deepens the epic of Piracy in the 24th Century with a close portrait of the woman who would become known simply as 49
