The Thrill Is Gone D L Martone

A pirate captain accused of mass murder. A planet on the verge of collapse. And a galactic commander with vengeance on her mind.

Captain Remy Bechet has escaped many sticky situations. But now, after crash-landing on an unfamiliar planet, he stands accused of killing everyone on board a long-awaited med ship and stealing a slew of much-needed drugs for the citizens of Vox. Perhaps this time, his luck has finally run out.

With her fellow Voxians counting on her for their very lives, Sheriff Lilly Greyson must do whatever she can to recover the stolen meds. Her only hope may lie with the mysterious pirate currently residing in her jail. But trust doesn't come easily for her.

Dreyla Bechet, meanwhile, finds herself alone in a strange world, separated from her crewmates, Remy and Tosh. To reunite with her family, she must rely on her wits, her survival instincts, and, like her captain, a willingness to pull off something both daring and desperate.

Of course, wildcard Tara Shaw promises to muck up everyone's plans. Even while working for Vox's most powerful crime lord, Gono Darkbur, she has only one goal: to annihilate her greatest nemesis, Remy Bechet, and get herself and her crew off this infernal planet.

If you're a fan of space operas like Firefly, The Mandalorian, and The Expanse, then you'll love The Thrill Is Gone, the second book in the Galactic Blues series. So, join the crew and grab your copy today!

Note: Galactic Blues originated as a nine-part serial. The authors have since expanded, reedited, and republished the story as a three-novel trilogy (with episodic cliffhangers in Books 1 and 2).
