Rating: 4 (1 reviews)
Author: Kieran Shea

When Jimmy Vik, a weary space miner on the brink of layoffs, discovers a hidden gold pocket on a far‑off planet, he realizes the discovery could change his fortunes. But the path to profit is riddled with danger: a rival mining company seeks to seize the gold, a suspicious ex‑girlfriend hovers in his life, and an unreliable partner adds uncertainty to the plan. Out of space, time, and a desperate need for survival, Vik wrestles with loyalty, risk, and the lawless frontier of interstellar mining to smuggle the precious metal off the planet. Earth‑bound economics meet planetary lawlessness in this short, high‑stakes adventure through mining, smuggling, and the shadows of human ambition.
