✦ Synopsis


A short story in Paul McAuley’s Quiet War universe telling the final hours in the life of one Colonel Faustino Malarte. The unpleasantly violent Colonel is planning his final hours on Mimas, avoiding the threat of an offworld genmod assassin after him, and planning to finalise his nefarious schemes before leaving the Saturnian moon a wealthier man. He is arrogant enough to believe he can play with fire without getting his fingers burnt.
