About This Book

A fleet salvage vessel is ordered to locate and evacuate a stricken sun cruiser whose propulsion and life‑support are failing near the star. The captain assigns two quarrelsome ensigns to the scanners while warning the crew to stay steady during the hazardous operation. The mission is urgent because an interstellar inspector is aboard and the loss could have serious political consequences. The story follows the ship’s tense, time‑pressured navigation through the chromosphere, confronting faculae, prominences, and sunspots as physical danger and crew unease mount during the rescue attempt.
