Jim Cable has been sent to stabilize the Grenlow, a Morgan-class interplanetary transport, and bring it home. The engine room holds a mystery he didn't bargain for. Marco and the author chase down Joey Bones to teach him a lesson. Joey's been trash talkin' Marco and threatening to shoot him. The threat doesn't bother Marco, but being called a rat? Now that bothers him. Can a man have a relationship with an EnviroSuit? Could an EnviroSuit, especially one with a female personality, long abide the imperfections of a human male, especially when she compares him with a massive, god-like creature machine?
