The thieves who stole your heart have painted themselves into a corner...

For half a decade Sheni’s been exiled from New Terra for sneaking aboard an Ark ship without a ticket. Now he wants to come home, but reams of bureaucratic red tape mean it’ll take years for his citizenship application to be approved – or denied.

So when a UEC shuttle carrying one of Earth’s rarest paintings goes missing, Sheni spots his chance to get back in humanity’s good books. If there’s anyone perfectly suited to hunting down stolen relics, it’s an ex-pirate. Unfortunately, the trail leads him to some of the most dangerous groups in the galaxy – Black Rock Raiders, Dread Pirate Queens, and over-ambitious tech companies – none of whom are exactly eager to hand over the artwork.

In order to prove he’s more than a petty criminal, Sheni and the crew of the Silver Hart will have to pull off their most audacious heist yet…

Fans of Terry Pratchett and Becky Chambers will love this page-turning conclusion to the Shadows in the Stars series. Expect explosive action and sharp-tongued anti-heroes in a Sci-Fi universe rich with imagination.
