When Denton Staxx, a special agent with the Orbital Security Services, discovers the Intergalactic Olympic Games have been targeted by a terrorist attack, he rushes to Earth to try and stop the event before it's too late. But what he discovers on earth is far worse than he imagined, and Denton is quickly pulled into a galaxy-wide conspiracy that takes him from one solar system to another in the search for a mastermind that will stop at nothing to get his revenge on the richest man in the universe -- regardless of the innocent people who die along the way.

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.

"We made you. We can break you." Bentley Waters was never meant to survive. A failed experiment with wings on her back, she's spent years trying to escape her past-avoiding old ghosts and building a wall between herself and the world. But when whispers of her dead teammates' resurrection reach her, and she's forced onto a team for a high-stakes mission, her carefully controlled life begins to spiral. The mission isn't just dangerous-it's personal. As secrets from her past resurface and her new team grows closer, Bentley must decide: will she risk trusting them? Especially him-a mysterious agent who seems to see right through her walls and into the wounds she's spent years hiding. But something bigger is coming, something that threatens to shatter everything she knows. If Bentley doesn't confront her past and learn to trust again, the people she cares about-alive or dead-may pay the price. *Cover: original photo not mine, all credits go to original photographer. . . .
