The Spiders - The Diamond Ship
When last we saw Kay Hoog (millionaire adventurer, courageous hunk), he’d been beset with tragedy.

But the past struck quickly. Hoog’s arch-nemesis, the homicidal femme Lio Sha, murdered Naela on the very grounds of Hoog’s estate, prompting him to swear revenge upon her and her criminal organization, the Spiders.
