I Am Krait W. J. Cherf

Krait is my call sign.
If you don't know what that is,
then your doomed.

In the twenty-fourth century, for better or worse, global government is a fact, intra-stellar trade a reality, alien contact and conflict a known liability, and brokered certified mercenaries fill the societal role of "extraordinary facilitators." Don't like the look of that? Well, tough.

I, Kathleen "Krait" Kramer, am a former United Earth Force Air & Space Command, First-Class Navigator. On my honorable discharge, I took a chance on a corporate outfit and succeeded hugely. First, I got a gene splice, gained the ability to mind speak, and then my employer uploaded me with the specs of their new intra-stellar interceptor prototype-the Praying Mantis. My job as test nav was to push that sucker to the stops, and did, several times. I've even flown missions against hostile aliens. And what did I get for it? A cultural outreach post on Sagittarius 43. I sure didn't see that one coming.

This volume is the third book of a new sci-fi fiction series. For those not familiar with my others, peek inside and find others that include time travel, paranormal archaeology, and age-old rivalries between occult societies.
