   Summary

   After Murderbot leaves Port FreeCommerce, it accidentally ends up on a station in the middle of an attempted corporate takeover. Trapped by the crossfire and lockdown, Murderbot is sure its short-lived freedom is over. Then the injured human next to it makes an offer—get her to the MedSystem on her ship, and she’ll provide a ride off the station.
