Desert Streams

A spacer, Leodhas, is wanted throughout the known galaxy for a lifelong series of petty crimes. In order to clear his name, he takes a job from the seedy leader of a backwater independent planet to kidnap and deliver a regal ambassador, Eilidh, who represents a powerful galactic confederacy. Sneaking his way on board her personal ship, Leodhas finds that he is not the only one interested in stealing away the confederate ambassador. The Conglomerate, a rival power encroaching from the other side of the galaxy led by the vile governor Edax, wants to use her as a bargaining chip in their twisted game of interstellar politics. Narrowly escaping the governor's clutches, Eilidh learns that her rescue by a seemingly courageous soldier turns out to be a thinly veiled plot to sell her off for freedom throughout the independent systems. However, when the Conglomerate beat them to their rendezvous, Eilidh and her captor learn that they will have to work together in order to keep her away from those who want to capture her and kill him.
