Liza Pound has pulled on one too many tails. And no-one likes their tail being pulled, especially tigers. In the grand scheme of things, the foxes were never a serious threat. But now there is a real threat, and they've taken notice of who is now their biggest threat.

Liza Pound needs a solution to her Fox problem. They simply will not stop coming at her. But as her list of friends expands, so too does her list of enemies. And the more ships she gets to react with, the more get thrown at her to react to. It's time to stop reacting. Now is the time for some serious Tail Pulling.

Liza Pound is feeling the bullseye on her back. But does she really know how big it actually is? The foxes have put a serious bounty on her head. And they want it, literally, in someone's freezer.

But when has what anyone wanted been part of what happens to them?
