The Smuggler's Log Christopher Meacham The captain's logs of a smuggler who operated back in the 2460s have been recently recovered in an intragalactic internet data mining operation. Our first installment includes regaled tails of smuggling ops of yore, shootouts, and an epic space battle. And for the political historians out there, we'll hear plenty of political intrigue and bureaucratic red tape, as well. Our data restoration scientists and technicians have restored a log of an entire day of the smuggler's operations.

After encountering betrayal in her home city of Venice, she goes to stay with a family of nobles in an isolated castle in Bohemia and teach singing to the baroness who lives there. It is there that she meets Count Albert, a troubled young man who experiences regressions to past lives. He is strangely drawn to her, but she, though moved with pity for him, is unsure what to think of him. She then sets out for Vienna to meet with Porpora again and on the way befriends a young Joseph Haydn. The two do their best to skirt intrigue and peril during their journey while Consuelo engages in soul-searching to determine who Count Albert is to her.
