Winning Colours
Restored to her former state of health (and determination) Lady Cecelia goes in search of fresh bloodstock – she's had enough of politics. But once again she manages to put herself – and Heris Serrano – at the point where lightning will strike. This time it's invasion from the neighboring empire: The Benignity of the Compassionate Hand. Heris is only a civilian now, with a space yacht – what can she do in the face of a full-scale fleet of warships? But she is also a Serrano – born to lead.
