DOG STAR NIGHT

When a criminal element increases activity on a tiny moon of Sirius-7, Governor Calhool has no choice but to accept their measly bribes and look the other way as they take free run of the capital city. The situation comes to a head when one of the marshals stuns a thug who was attempting to kidnap a twelve-year-old girl. Soon after, the gang declares open-season on Calhool and her marshals. Will she find the means to stand up for her city?  This week only: Every purchase of this novelette results in $4 to charities: the Children's Book Bank and FreeGeek!
