WAS VENU'S FATHER ADRIFT IN SPACE, CAPTIVE...OR DEAD
Life changed abruptly for 16-year-old Venu Jhabulova when his father disappeared. Venu had been heir to a large fortune and his father's title...but now his uncle forced him to leave school and work for the family business. Venu's only wish - that he be allowed to search the star system for his father - was denied.
Venu knew, deep inside, that his father still lived. So he escaped his uncle, fleeing from world to world in a desperate search. With the help of a mercenary who teaches him the proper use of violence and the ways of several planets, Venu learns and grows...during his SPACE SEARCH.
