Blood Enemies
It's been a year since Andrej Koscuisko sent his stolen bond-involuntary Security into Gonebeyond space; a year since he followed after, and been confined at Safehaven Medical Center. When a secret mission calls the thula to Langsarik Station, one of Andrej's once-Security -- Robert St. Clare -- will take the opportunity to meet Andrej again at last.
Neither of them know that they face an enemy with the will and the means to enslave Gonebeyond Space and everybody in it. Neither of them know what they must endure in the bitter struggle that lies ahead -- Robert St. Clare, and Andrej Koscuisko; Security Chief Stildyne; and the slave of the Malcontent, "Cousin" Stanoczk, who will force Andrej to confront the greatest challenge of his life, one to which he must yield in order to overcome, one whose consequences -- even should he live -- may ruin his last chances for happiness forever.
