Quote: "I must say he looked better through my rifle scope."
If you think your work team assignments are bad, here's a story about what happens when they're as bad as it gets: Lieutenant Payvan once, in the course of duty, had to shoot Lieutenant Tarbic's brother. "He died in my arms," Tarbic tells the superior officer who's assigned him to work directly below Payvan now. She thinks she has to work with him for the sake of her career. He looks forward to working with her for the chance to take revenge.
It will end happily...if you can suspend disbelief long enough (this is a fairly long space drama). Ziva Payvan happens to be attractive but she'll also, strictly as a matter of duty, save Aroska Tarbic's life. If you want to read more about how they decide they make a good working team, you'll want the rest of the series, too.
This novel was too violent for my taste (sympathetic characters kill enemies "onstage," in detail) but that may be just what some readers like about it. I don't judge.
