Pilot — Valerie Gaumont

All she wanted was a cup of coffee and what she wound up getting was knocked out and interogated by the military. They knew she owned an imports store but they also knew she was a member of the Calabrese family, one of a small number of families that make up the guild. Elena was once a pilot, capable of taking a sailing vessel from the oceans through ancient channels that reach across space to other worlds. Thrust back into the world of ancient politics she thought she had left behind, she suddently finds herself in business with not only her own family but another known as Black Pete whose reputation precedes himself not to mention the military... Pilot is a contemporary fantasy with twists and turns around every bend. The ancient world of the families and the pilots interacting with today's military who have their own agenda merge to create a real page turner.
