"Everyone should have the opportunity to meet a Phil Kaufman sometime in their lifetime. The experience is, in the least, exhilarating. He's 'officially' a travelling band's road manager, but that doesn't do him justice.

Leyton, a government black-ops specialist, is diverted from his usual duties to hunt down the elusive pirate vessel The Noise Within, wondering all the while why this particular freebooter is considered so important. Two lives collide in this stunning space-opera from debut novelist Ian Whates!
