Excellent--Viehl is one of my new favorite authors and I'm in the process of reading the whole series. (her book reminds me of McCaffrey/Moon books) This book has Dr Torin working on the ship Sunlace as the Senior Healer. She end up forced into an engagement with one person while she loves another. She's stalked by someone on board who has engineered a way to use the entire ship as an internal weapon. Meanwhile the League is trying to capture her and they don't care who they eliminate that gets in the way. Very surprise ending too!
