Jimmy Vik works for a galactic mining company, with his ex-flame as his boss. When he discovers a significant gold pocket during a routine shaft demolition procedure he feels his luck has changed — though smuggling the gold “off rock” won’t be easy. With the help of a scrounger and gambler and his sidekick, Jimmy puts together a plan.
A sardonic heist novel set in space, Off Rock is escapist adventure of the cruellest kind. Pass the popcorn.
