About this listen

Pepper Melange, a bartender on the backwater planet Yanthus Prime, has sworn she'd never go back to her life of crime. But when she finds herself in debt to the Ursa Minor Mafia, she decides to bet everything on one more score: the theft of the Emerald of Sobalt Prime, the most valuable gem in the galaxy.

To pull off the heist, Pepper has to recruit some very unusual allies - as well as outwit local law enforcement and the Mob. It's a delicate and dangerous balancing act, and when Pepper learns the truth about the Emerald, she realizes she's only a pawn in a game far beyond her understanding....

This was a short but fun story. The narrator gives a great performance, especially with the voices she does for some of the characters.
