Retribution Required — C.R. Daems

Zenaida's father was murdered and her snow leopard's cubs stolen, leaving her alone in the outback of the civilized systems-called the Rim. There smuggling, bribes, and a wild-west live-free-or-die attitude prevails and an eye-for-an-eye is the preferred method of retribution. For Zenaida, a child of the Rim, the death of her father requires retribution. But she must first learn how to survive while trying to track down her snow leopard's stolen litter and her father's killers. But unknown to her, her father's killers spared her for a reason -- a secret that could mean her death if she discovers it.
