Continuation of the series Flaming Nozzles. This is a story about a young bounty hunter Tim Gradsky, whose task is to find and destroy criminals sentenced to death who at one time managed to escape from justice. Space is incredibly large, there is a place to get lost, but the Gross will do everything to find the fugitive and punish him. Tim Gradsky has not yet made a name for himself in the Gross League... but he is diligently moving along this path, trying his best to remain humane and fair. In this he is helped by his faithful team and AI Leo, loyal to the last bit, who will always find a reason to grumble... From the author: In the third novel, Tim - and not only him - will have to face the most serious danger. He will have to do everything possible and impossible in order not only to survive himself, but also to save as many innocent civilians as possible... At the same time, quite close by cosmic standards, even more terrible events will occur and directly related to the precious metal artianite... I am talking about all these events I’ll tell you with special “insert digressions” that will expand the plot and at the same time the universe of Asteroid City. I use the same method in the third book “No Mercy” - about the avenger Nortis Vertinsky.
