Framed by the traitorous Prospero Congress, McAlmatov, Demetriou, Gainsborough, Majorette and Pol flee Pluto for the Oberon Torus, an outsystem backwater. There they meet the crew of the pirate ship Easy Rider, which ferried Demetriou to Sol system from his failed mission in the Lyra system.
The Navy apprehends McAlmatov, who then finds himself in a forced simulation for interrogation.
Also tracking the Dragonfly is Snake, the young daughter of the captain of the Æsynja Warworm that killed McAlmatov's crew. She has vowed vengeance on McAlmatov and she has disguised herself as human using holographic technology. She is determined to let nothing stand in her way.
With McAlmatov in custody, the remaining Dragonfly crew are left without a leader. They have to get him back, but who can they turn to for help?
