After years of living in his grandfather's shadow Petr Drexel, a member of the space-faring nomadic Star Folk, is on a quest to prove his worth to himself and his family. On his first job, Petr's shuttle is shot out of the sky in the middle of a Martian civil war. Ship repairs put Petr in debt to Alfred Zwinger, who offers Petr a deal he can't refuse: pay off the debt by completing jobs for a powerful Martian noble named Rickard d'Helion.

During his first job for d'Helion Petr's shuttle is stolen by Henrietta, a Star Folk Navigator on the run. Petr retrieves his shuttle only to discover the work he was hired for isn't as simple as it seems. Deliver mining equipment - and fight off an army to protect the site; capture a rogue Star Folk mech pilot - only to discover it's Henrietta's brother, and that Henrietta isn't who she appears to be. Petr and his motley crew quickly become entangled in solar system spanning intrigue, and now Petr's problem is no longer just paying off his debt, but whether he will survive at all.
