Publisher's Synopsis
Planet Dismolle is supposed to be a peaceful haven. So what's with all the gunfire?
A criminal gang has moved into Chirless, Dismolle's second major city. Elderly residents are fed up with the loud music, noisy cars and late night parties, not to mention hold-ups, muggings and the occasional gunfight. Chirless has no Peace Force, so Harriet Walsh has to support them as best she can. That puts her up against a gang of hardened criminals with only her training pistol and a few old allies to lend a hand. And these allies aren't just old, they're positively ancient! Besieged by ruthless, well-armed enemies, can Harriet and her motley gang of retirees hold on until help arrives, or is it curtains for the Peace Force? Harriet Walsh novels are light science fiction - no tech-heavy jargon, just clean, futuristic fun. Harriet Walsh is also a major character in the Hal Spacejock books, and she joins the series in Hal Spacejock 4, No Free Lunch.
