Girl From Above 1: Betrayal | Pippa DaCosta
WARNING: 18+ only. Adult content. Including sex, drug use, violence, & swearing. After Captain Caleb Shepperd escapes from prison, all he wants to do is keep his head down and earn a living smuggling guns and drugs through the nine systems. When a synth known as #1001 stows away on the captain's ship, bringing with her a ton of problems—including guilt-ridden secrets he thought he’d left behind—he’d prefer to toss her out the airlock. The problem is, she’s priceless tech and he’s fresh out of credit. Selling her to the highest bidder is the next best thing. But #1001 is no ordinary synth. She's programmed to kill. While human memories of murder and betrayal riddle her synthetic systems with faults, she's thinking only of revenge. For Caleb, there's nowhere left to hide. From the bestselling author of the Veil Series comes an action packed story of love, redemption, and revenge.
