В доме города, расположенного под куполом на планете, вращающейся вокруг звезды Барнарда, недавно нанятый сантехник по имени Кейн только что совершил убийство. Через несколько минут воздушные шлюзы в районе были открыты, и убийца задохнулся вместе с тридцатью одним невинным жителем. Джакс, низший оператор купола, находившийся на дежурстве в то время, обвиняют в массовом убийстве и сталкивают с горой невозможных улик против него. Его единственным союзником становится Ранстом, отступивший полицейский, которому поручено доставить его в безопасное место за пределами планеты. Двум приятелям придется пойти на все, чтобы доказать, что Джакс не совершил эту зверство и раскрыть правду, прежде чем они оба окажутся мертвыми.
Unanticipated Rain by Jason LaPier
The domed cities above Barnard’s Star might have air, but its cargo contained murder. Kane had just murdered one of his neighbors, and minutes later, their airlock valves had deactivated.

Runstom was charged as Jax' new temporary partner. His duties fretted him, for everything was now up for suspicion including himself. As he was tasked with transporting his alleged accomplice, underworld inmates searched for Runstom and Jax. Any attempts at proving the contrary were riddling with gaps; his only chance was to team up with a truly legendary rogue himself: Jax...
