Ylesia
Ylesia is a planet in the Hutt space, located in the Outer Rim territories. It was once known as a religious retreat, were pilgrims would go to. It was there that Han Solo got his first job as a pilot. He discovered the planet was a large producer of spice (Star Wars term for illegal drugs), and later found the religious aspect of life was just a front. The pilgrims were in fact slaves processing the spice for the Besadii, a clan of Hutts led by Aruk.
Ylesia is an e-book installment of the Star Wars novel series The New Jedi Order. Set at the same time as the Walter Jon Williams novel Destiny's Way, it's primarily the story of a relative of Han Solo's, Thracken Sal-Solo, who finds himself leading the collaborationist Peace Brigade. Han's daughter Jaina Solo carries out the task of Force-melding Jedi pilots into a fighting force.
