About this ebook
When your employer is a hundred years older than you are, you will spend much of your time playing nurse-maid. That was a complication Letitia didn't need, because Letitia's real job was to nudge their planet to a warmer orbit, a risky job that required her full concentration. Having the old fool declared incompetent would have solved the problem, but her employer was not incompetent, in fact she appeared to be growing more competent every day.
More competent, perhaps, but making some strange decisions. She'd brought in an anti-social child as trainee, and she'd announced a major conference with a shrivelled misogynist as guest of honour. Strange because the employer hated conferences and she'd once threatened to murder the guest of honour. Something was up, but whatever the plan was, it wasn't being shared with her hard-working employees. Then there was the bizarre business of the ice yacht.
