Cat/Mouse: An Allied Space novella

After a string of bold heists rocks the Edenite art scene, veteran hunter Nadine picks up the bounty of a lifetime: fifty thousand credits to capture a crafty forger and bring her in alive. It should be an easy job... but one look at her mark tells Nadine she might have bitten off more than she can chew. On a space station full of secret dealings, dirty money, and luxurious lies, it seems even the simplest contracts are prone to complication.

Ulu'zah likes to keep things professional. Slip in unseen, swap priceless art with a perfect fake, and get out before anyone's the wiser. Simple. This job is no different... until the quadrant's peskiest bounty hunter gets Ulu'zah in her sights. As her deadline approaches and Nadine's meddling worsens, the elusive thief must cobble together a plan or risk defaulting on a very dangerous debt.

TWs for violence, blood, and implied abuse.
