[edit] Summary

Maris is a down-on-her-luck Space Policewoman/Bounty Hunter deeply in debt. Why? Maris is a Thanatosian, and Thanatosians have six times the strength of a normal human being. So to keep the destruction her race does to a minimum, Thanatosians are made to wear harnesses that limit their strength. But Maris always seems to destroy one thing or another when she's on patrol, so when she hears that a intergalatic prince has been kidnapped, and that his father is willing to pay a fortune for his return, will this be her ticket out of debt and into fame?
