HMSS Broadside. The lost Journals

In the late Twenty Second century the Royal Navy dispatched a fleet of four Corsair class destroyers to track down those responsible for a catalogue of atrocities on the outlying colonies of Seela Vi and Carathune. Her Majesty’s Spaceship (HMSS) Hood and Exeter were lost during the voyage across the near Galaxy whilst HMSS Penrose and Broadside were separated during the same ambush. All were thought lost without trace, until by chance one hundred and twenty standard sol years later. The aptly named deep space research station Dog Two at the edge of the Dog Star constellation recovered the first of what appears to be the final journals of HMSS Broadside.
