The premise, in the publisher's words

You're a gig worker in the distant future, scrounging a living as best you can on the interstellar frontier. Short on funds, you've decided to become a Rockjack - an asteroid miner - and you've signed a contract with the GOX corporation to venture out into the asteroid fields of deep space in search of valuable resources! It's a dirty and dangerous job - ancient seeker mines and alien marauders haunt the asteroids and will try to stop you! But if you survive, there's a very tiny possibility that you might get rich!
