Debatable Space, by Philip Palmer -- SF
2008
Region of Waterloo Library.
The Cheo is the despotic ruler of human space. Flanagan is a pirate who has a plan to kidnap Lena, the Cheo's daughter. Except the Cheo won't play ball, and Lena isn't what she seems. The plan goes bad -- but then Flanagan expected that. The pirate is playing a deep game, and a long one. This book is mainly a character study of Flanagan and Lena, but I still didn't understand either of them.
