Description

When a dying fugitive entrusts Cassy with a forbidden code, she must protect a secret which promises to save humanity – and threatens to get her killed.

Freelance spaceship captain “Cassy” Cassandra investigates the mysteries of a code stolen from the Fertillan royal family while Prince Stephen, the head of its security service, pursues her. 

Evading soldiers, fighting pirates and calling in favours, Cassy returns to her home planet of Fertilla where her past and its connection to a dead king wait for her. Realising the key to both lies with Prince Stephen, she closes in on her enemy. But, what begins as a clandestine probe for information, turns to love as she discovers the real man behind the military uniform.

Until Cassy cracks the code and understands she must escape Fertilla to bring salvation to the galaxy. Stephen follows, under orders to stop her, and only the final battle will decide if Cassy and the code survive.

A page-turning space adventure, Traitor’s Code mixes murder and intrigue with the heartache of impossible love in the first, unmissable instalment of the Freelancer trilogy.

    Independent spaceship captain Cassi really steps in it when she agrees to take on a religious monk as a passenger. Her innocent choice leads to arrest, interrogation, murder, thriling spaceship duels, daring escapes, a nascent agricultural revolution, and the immensely unnerving attention of royalty - Prince Stephen, commander of the Fertillan Guard, and her worst frenemy. Fans of cat-and-mouse spy thrillers and slo-o-ow burn romance will love this one. This is a voluntary independent ARC review.
