Birds of a Feather

The war between the Freeborn and Commonwealth may be over, but the veteran crew of the Celia has learned that old rivalries die hard, especially when the Captain and Crew Chief, both former Commonwealth Military, learn that the notorious Freeborn assassin Stormcrow has been living right beneath their noses as a crew member on their ship. But apparently, time can heal old wounds and now they have bigger problems than fighting amongst themselves. Not only is the ship's pilot (and the Captain's husband) in desperate need of medical attention, but they still have yet to solve the mystery of their young passenger whose mind kicks into auto-pilot during emergency situations, showing that she knows...and can do things that a young girl her age should not be able to with her limited experience. Now as the Celia finally arrives at Porto San Lucia, the crew is hoping to get their crew mate treated and some questions answered but things go south pretty quickly when a mob heiress is kidnapped while they are in port.
