Synopsis
People call him Starman though his name is Fosse. He steals spaceships to order.
In the near future, as humanity colonises the moon and earth's orbital space, scores of shady groups want in on the action: the mob, emerging nations, terrorists, you name it. If you don't have the resources to develop your own space programme, no problem. Starman will steal anything you need, from shuttle components to entire rockets.
On one of his jobs Starman picks up a strange sphere that seems to possess anti-momentum. He's not sure what it is, although it's soon apparent that certain people will go to any lengths to relieve him of it.
When an Irkutski Independence group enlists Starman to swipe an antique Soviet rocket from a Russian space museum, the mistake they make is double-crossing him.
Starman is most definitely not the kind of man you sell out...
