Persephone Quest — Sean Monaghan

The deep space battleship Persephone Quest crashed on Paulding's surface centuries back. The history books closed long ago. Leaving behind a monument and nothing much else. When people start asking the wrong questions, Flis and Grae find themselves tangled in a tangled and tightening web of deception and corruption. Only one person has the answers. The pilot of Persephone Quest herself. Big problem. The pilot died in the wreck. Three hundred years ago. A standalone novel in the thrilling Karnish River Navigations series.
