From Wikipedia: One hundred years after the original story of Privateer, a cargo ship Canera is attacked during landing and crashes into Mendra City on planet Crius. One survivor, As Lev Arris, a man with no memory of who he is and no record of his existence prior to two weeks before the crash, must take the life of a privateer in the Tri-System, re-discovering his past along the way.
