Summary
Publisher's summary:
In an uncharted system in the depths of space, a fleeing smuggler with a vicious grudge against the New Republic stumbles upon an Imperial shipyard with a deadly secret. Boba Fett has captured Princess Leia and is bringing her to the Hutts for the murder of Jabba. The Hutts betray Fett and he releases Leia who immediately contacts him to find Han, who has been captured by the smuggler. [1]
Chronology Note
From the zine:
This story is set in the 'official' Star Wars timeline, concurrent with the series of books from Bantam Spectra. It occurs a month or two after the events depicted in the Black Fleet Crisis trilogy by Michael P. Kube-McDowell (Before The Storm, Shield Of Lies, Tyrant's Test) seventeen years after the battle of Yavin. The only information a reader needs know from those books to understand this story is that Han and Leia have three children: Jacen and Jaina, twins, eight years old; and Anakin, age seven. All three children are Force-sensitive, Anakin especially so, particularly with machinery.
Author's Acknowledgments
From the zine:
In the eighteen months it took to complete this story, I received immeasurable help from many people, whom I would like to thank here. First, Carolyn Golledge, for introducing me to the world of zine publishing and convincing me to try to publish here; Judy Yuenger, for all of her assistance and guidance as I worked my way through my first zine story; Sarah Paylor, David LaRoss, and Carolyn Thomson for correcting innumerable typos, grammatical errors, and plot inconsistencies; and, along with the three above, Clara Rimmer for continually begging, cajoling, and ordering me into staying with this project when I lagged. 1 would never have finished otherwise.
And, of course, an extra special thanks to George Lucas for creating Star Wars.
