Plot summary[]

THE ENGINE JOB part 1 HEADHUNTED

After narrowly escaping Darth Vader and doing a huge solid for the Rebellion, Doctor Aphra's cut all ties to her past
and is trying to go back to what she does best: hunting down the most valuable treasures in the galaxy.

But the rogue archaeologist is also exceedingly good at making enemies. Aphra's latest misadventure to find the
mythical Rings of Vaale put her at odds with Ronen Tagge, the insanely powerful scion of the Tagge dynasty.

And the Tagges do not forgive. Nor do they forget….
