Downloading Horse Latitudes: A Lesfic Space Opera (Black Flag #8)

Sometimes, silence is just the quiet before the storm.

When the Black Flag crew is assigned to transport a young Union ambassador on his first diplomatic mission, they're promised a few weeks of quiet downtime. Easy money.

And dead in the water, the Black Flag readies to weather the coming storm - weather it, or be swept away in its fury.
