In the third book of the “entertaining” (Kirkus Reveiws) Keiko series, Captain Ichabod Drift and his crew find themselves in another mess as a ship-wide vacation leads to their second-in-command taken hostage by the planet’s criminal mastermind. After the riotous civil war in Dark Sky, the crew of the Keiko decides to go on vacation at an illegal gambling port for a little fun. What they don’t realize is that the casinos are run by an ex-client who didn’t get his shipment due to the war. The mob boss decides to take Tamara Rouke, the Keiko’s second-in-command, and hold her hostage until the crew raises enough money to pay him back for the lost shipment. If they don’t pay up in time, Rouke will be killed. Captain Ichabod Drift and his crew agree. But as they find a way to get the funds, one will betray everyone and one will die…

Another exciting journey for the crew of the Keiko! The characters are still wonderful and the author includes even more representation. And man the crew just can't catch a break; nothing ever goes right for them. Which might actually be the thing that bothered Squidapus about this book. He has no idea where the crew can go from here after all the consequences at the end. And if this is the final Keiko adventure, it leaves a bad taste in his beak

Firefly-esque in its essence, and rolling directly off of the sequel, this installment lets the reader delve deeper into more characters. Second-in-Command Tamara Rourke gets some great page time. Held hostage by the man the Keiko crew owes money to, Rourke turns her captivity to her advantage. While negotiating her own release, the Keiko is doing their own bit of "fundraising" so that they can get their Second back. Major alterations occur.
