To Keep the Ship

Although this was a low point in the ever-changing space career of the legendary John Grimes, it was not without its surprising moments. Between jobs, between loyalties, Grimes was owner and pilot of a small auxiliary vessel whose principal oddity was that it was made of gold. But precious metal or not, Grimes was running errands in it. Until he fell into the clutches of terrorists. Susie and her comrades had a Cause and it was going to take all of his efforts to keep the one thing he had to have - his ship. Especially since they left the ship infested with a constantly increasing horde of mini-Susies - vicious little homunculi that looked exactly like their sexy prototype except that they where hungry, sharp-toothed, and their only Cause was to eat Grimes alive!
