This time Hammer's mercenaries are faced with a revolt and have to protect the governemnt that holds their contract. Not much of a plot, but lots of action.
Two things kept nagging me: the protagonist is called Tyi and I associate it with a femanle name, but the character is male. The other thing is that the geography of the place is described accurately, but I did not manage to form a clear picture of it. ( )

Dedication
First words
They'd told Tyi Koopman that Bamberg City's starport was on an island across the channel from the city proper, so he hadn't expected much of a skyline when the freighter's hatches opened.
