Cold Welcome is a bit different from her other series, yet she keeps the same well developed characters. Her female protagonist, Ky, is returning to her home world after years away fighting a war. She is returning as a hero. But her shuttle is sabotaged by a group that is determined to kill her and all her family. Survival is the name of the game. Ky is strong, both physically and mentally, but her enemy is old, well financed, established, and has a secret they are desperate to keep. Ky and the passengers she is marooned with must die if the enemy's secret is to be kept.
The passengers are not military and sometime reluctant to follow Ky's leadership. They don't really believe they are in danger from people meaning to actually KILL them dead and cause Ky trouble. The discovery of the enemies' hidden cave proves to be both Ky's possible salvation or her and the group's death warrant.
This is a novel that will be difficult for the reader to put down before the last page is read.
