Captain Genro commands the massive starship Dragon Zephyr through the void between worlds. Ten thousand passengers lie suspended in electrocoma while others drift through the ship's dream chambers. At the heart of his vessel sits the Pilot, a woman whose body serves as living machinery. Her role demands she trigger each jump through space via cosmic orgasm, launching the ship across impossible distances. Society treats her as untouchable, a necessary outcast. No captain should acknowledge her existence, much less speak to her. Genro violates every rule when he approaches his Pilot and attempts to form a connection with her. His forbidden relationship threatens everything aboard the Dragon Zephyr. The consequences of their bond lead to the most feared disaster in space travel: a Blind Jump into the Void. Genro must confront what his desires have cost his ship, his passengers, and the woman he sought to reach across the gulf of protocol and prejudice.
