Keeper HARDBACK

When Captain Alex Marcase heard his father had died, he expected his inheritance would be enough to fund his next deep space expedition. When that legacy turned out to be a genetically altered slave named Evan, it spelled the end of Alex's normal, orderly life. Not only does Evan have his own brand of morality, his special abilities are coveted by his late owner's enemies. As the pair head out to deep space with their enemies in hot pursuit, Alex's chief rival ahead of them, and a saboteur on board, they'll either adjust to each other, or die trying.
