Frankie Takes a Bow

What's worse than being the poster child for your planet's destruction?

Being invited back to the Capital that made you famous for it-on the anniversary. Ugh. But Frankie Styles, cargo captain and reluctant icon, can't say no when her best friend Beth announces she's marrying into the Regent's family.

A week of state dinners, perfected manners, and questions about That Photo? Fine. Plus her not-quite-a-cat companion Spike keeps vanishing to "meetings." But seriously, how bad could a wedding be?

Perfect for fans of: Becky Chambers' Wayfarers series, Ann Leckie's Imperial Radch, anyone who thinks weddings are better with drama, and readers who know that sometimes the real family is the enhanced spy-cat you found along the way.
