Empire's Legacy

Amy Jones wants a lot of things. Chief among them: make the archaeological discovery of the century, ensure her brother's indiscretions disappear, and destroy her father and the Commission for which he stands.

But she'd settle on the average day for a homemade chocolate muffin.

Amy's spent the last decade skulking around the galaxy under false identities, chasing rumours of Empire-era ruins. The discovery of an intact research vessel hidden behind an asteroid promises to make her career and gain recognition for something other than being the daughter of the Secretary of Internal Affairs.

But the excitement of recovering the ERV Waratah soon turns to horror. Amy and the crew of the salvage vessel she hired discover that the ship's entire crew is dead, killed by the accidental release of one of the diseases being studied on board. The Waratah is a tomb ship, floating through space.

Worse, the ship was sealed under quarantine procedures over two hundred years earlier, preventing the dead from decomposing—except someone unsealed the ship weeks before Amy's team arrived. And the disease that killed the crew has gone missing.

When people on outlying planets start coming down sick, Amy realizes someone deliberately released an extinct disease to eradicate undesirable populations. And she's pretty sure she knows who.
