Before the Con

A prequel novella to The Facilite Con—best listened to after Book 1.

Famen Striker's impossible heist almost never happened.

Before the crew. Before the score. Before anyone ever called her captain.

When the last bit of hope is stolen from her, Famen shows what happens when you take on someone who's got nothing left to lose.

Find out how she became captain of the Glass Spider in Before the Con, a fast, funny sci-fi novella in the Love Machine Files series.
