Space Mafia: The Epsilon Eridani Incident

In the 28th century, a philanthropic entrepreneur owns a group of trade outposts on the edge of the Terran Alliance territory. Traders, travellers and wanderers pass through, spending vast amounts of money. The galaxy's foremost alliance of criminals covets the profit-making capacity of the company, so they have sent agents to the station where the company owner lives, intent on taking control one way or another. But a never-before-seen stellar phenomenon isolates the station, leaving the station's crew, the innocent travellers and the handful of agents stuck together in a crucible of attack and counter-attack - while a mischievous entity takes control of people indiscriminately, intent on wreaking further havoc.
