From the back of the book: "My Dearest Heart, I'm sorry I haven't written you soon.er I've had my pick of bounty jobs this season, and I've only now had some spare time as I make my way to a new system. To let you know the type of events that I've been up against, at our first interstellar switch point pirates attacked us. Though a metaphysicist might have foreseen the danger, we didn't have one on board. Fortunately, a well placed shot from out cybernetically enhanced weapons officer efficiently finished the would-be thieves. We only needed a few minor repairs to get us on our way. We made it to our destination without further incident, and a cyber-psy is bringing in the ship now. You and I will have to arrange to meet as soon as I've found out more about my next assignment - I could be heading to a megacorp-controlled planet or a frontier world. I'll let you know.! Yours with live ... P.S. Though you can't join my on my bounty hunting, I'm sending along a game that could help you get an idea of what I do.
