The Real Story is a short but intense tale set in a future in which humans travel between the stars using "gap drives," controllable brain implants are punishable by death, and a private company called the United Mining Company runs law enforcement for all of known space. Ensign Morn Hyland lives aboard a police ship with most of her family, chasing down pirates and other illegals who prey on the weak or smuggle goods into forbidden space.

Through a strange turn of events, one particularly nasty perpetrator ends up with Morn as his companion--or at least that's the way it appears to the folks at the space station's bar. Why would a young, strong, beautiful police officer associate with a crusty, murdering pirate? People watch with interest as Morn appears to fall in lust with another racy illegal, Captain Nick Succorso. Morn and Nick must have plotted together to frame Angus and escape together, right? But the real story was quite different.

I loved this whole series. The way Donaldson starts with a quick scenario and then expounds on it repeatedly hooked me immediately.

They can be a emotional read as Donaldson tortures his main characters, but hang in there. The ending is worth it.

This is the 1st part of an excellent series by Donaldson. A space age drama that will keep you sitting on the edge of your zero gravity seat.
