Acceleration Clause Summary

He used to weaponize contracts from a desk. Now he enforces them at gunpoint in deep space.

Cal Ransom is a corporate lawyer with a career in freefall—and TrustUs! has found the perfect use for him: indenture on a spaceship repossession crew. His first assignment is straightforward on paper: recover the Celestial Aura, a missing research vessel last seen heading for the dead Koschei system.

Except three other repo ships are already racing toward the same prize.

Which means someone leaked the mission. And since Cal is the new guy, he's the obvious suspect.

As the Hard Bargain closes on Koschei, the job turns into a three-way scramble for possession, with rival crews, corporate secrets, and a target ship that doesn't behave like any ship should—because something aboard the Celestial Aura is talking back.

To survive, Cal will have to out-argue killers, outmaneuver a hidden power with its own enforcement muscle, and decide how much of the law he's willing to break to keep breathing.

Perfect for fans of: hard-edged space opera with tactical action; corporate intrigue and legal chess moves; tight, wry, character-driven science fiction.
