Publisher's summary[]

FORLORN FOR 4-LOM! T'ONGA and her bounty hunters are desperate to recover 4-LOM for their mission…but the upgraded killer droid is the one hunting them aboard a ghost ship. Can ZUCKUSS survive a reunion with his onetime partner? Meanwhile, VUKORAH makes her move…and the criminal underworld will never be the same!

Plot summary[]

WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE…

In their effort to save Cadeliah, the young heir of two warring
crime syndicates, the bounty hunters must find Zuckuss'
partner, 4-LOM. The former protocol droid-turned-mercernary
is capable of slicing thousands of communications across the
galaxy for clues to Cadeliah's whereabouts.

But during the events of the War of the Bounty Hunters,
4-LOM was rebuilt and programmed to kill Zuckuss. Can the
bounty hunters survive an encounter with this monstrous
killing machine in time to bring peace to an underworld that's
destroying itself?
