Science Fiction
When bounty hunter Isaac Harris visits the suburban home of Tia Forest, he brings a brigade of marines with him in order to extract the dangerous alien life form living there: Tia's fiance Alexander. After unleashing a vicious military raid, Isaac hauls his struggling target away just as the General in charge of the operation arrives on the scene: Tia's own estranged father. Forced to accompany her father back to his military compound for 'decontamination', Tia witnesses brutal tests being performed on Alex and desperately seeks the opportunity to free her lover. But the charming bounty hunter manages to foil her every attempt, with powers that are not entirely of this world. Elsewhere, Alex's capture has infuriated some very powerful individuals; from the comfort of their alien battle cruiser Kala and Leonidas observe the savage treatment Alex is receiving at the hands of the military and vow to bring it to an end by any means necessary. After his own military medics fail to produce results, the General brings in an outside specialist, a Professor whose experience with the Roswell debris makes him uniquely qualified. But when he comes to form a trust with his alien subject and with Tia, the Professor becomes a sympathetic wild card that the General can not tolerate. Kala and Leo touch down on Earth, making quick work of human defenses, just as the Professor triggers a massive explosion, crippling the military installation and setting Alex free. Aliens, humans and everyone in between are forced to choose sides and square off in a devastating battle as Tia learns that she is more than just human... she's the key to peace between two alien civilizations that have been at war for decades. And without her, it's a war that Earth can only lose.

The last refuge of the dispossessed. The place Tila Vasquez now calls home. When a distant colony of stars lost contact with earth, they descended into the fires of a civil war. From the ashes rose the Commonwealth - Eleven systems struggling to survive the aftermath and rebuild civilisation with the remnants of the technology they once had. The mission to colonise Baru was to be the first step forward in a hundred years. Three colony ships set out to discover a new star and build the first hyperspace beacon in three generations. But the mission failed. The Far Horizon vanished through the unstable wormhole. The Rising Star and New Dawn were destroyed. Tila's parents were among the thousands lost. Now she has joined the ranks of the dispossessed. So when Tila finds the impossible - a shuttle from the Far Horizon buried deep within the Juggernaut - she sets out with her friends Ellie and Malachi to uncover the truth behind the colony mission. But some things are buried for a reason, and some secrets should never be revealed... **The Juggernaut is part one of an exciting space action-adventure mystery series.**
