The Minerals of Murcia: The Adventures of Hassan, Rogue Space Trader Book Three

It was a bit like a homecoming and we settled in. The mood was subdued, we would not be partying tonight. There were serious matters we needed to discuss. For the moment I just wanted to enjoy dinner with my friends. The talk would come, now or later.“Tell me,” I said to Giorgio, “what did the girls get you today?”“This,” he said. He put his hands on his hips, got up on his toes, and pretended to catwalk, sucking in his lips and batting his eyelashes at me. Walking a few mets and back, he perfectly mimicked a model on the runway to howls and whistles from everyone.I guess he had learned something today.He was wearing a deep blue jumpsuit, opened to below his navel as usual, with his favorite metal chain. It looked good on him and I wanted to climb up and start peeling him out of it. I didn't doubt I would get the chance for that later. On a routine delivery trip to the Chueca System, Hassan has become the target of corrupt forces. Just trying to do the right thing gets him involved in a full-blown rebellion.Relying on his wit, not to mention his incredible skills at well, almost everything, Hassan and his team face a new challenge to not only survive but stave off a disaster.Once again it's up to them and the ship's increasingly humanized AI, Sheila, to bring everything to order and of course have a some fun, lust and make a little profit along the way.Update notes:- Better wording, more dialogue instead of narrative, adjustments of certain events and data to fit with the continuing story of Hassan in the following books of the series.
