Why this must be read:

Because Mara Jade is such a fun character to read about and this author does an excellent job getting her inner voice down. Zarek is just as sleazy and underhand as he is in canon and seeing these two interact was very entertaining.

She has it on good authority from one of Rogue Squadron's newest members that the New Republic is secretly testing out a new snub fighter, and though fighter planes aren't usually her thing, she certainly wasn't going to turn down Starbuck's offer to give one a good run-down. Kara owes her the favor-- hell, Kara owes her at least ten favors-- and she knows could use the time away from responsibilities, not to mention that Kara's usually up for a good fight, and Mara's been itching for one ever since she started this undercover work with Lando.
