The Swamp Cat and the Reckless Scout

Captain Stel Aurora of the Reckless Scout is on a routine ScoutGuard mission when the emergency call comes in - the men of a remote research station are disappearing, possibly kidnapped. The "swamp planet" Inderani B boasts a humid climate, voracious insects...but no other inhabitants, and not many clues to the vanished researchers. It's a race against time for Aurora and her crew as they delve into the secrets of the jungle, and the mysterious swamp cats who might hold the answers to it all.
