Science Fiction
DEBUT SOLO NOVEL FROM THE CO-AUTHOR OF DEAD SIX. Air Force
weapons expert Mike Kupari, co-author of Dead Six and Swords
of Exodus, offers up a science fiction adventure. When
privateer Captain Catherine Blackwood is enlisted to rescue
her brother from a treacherous warlord, she finds herself on
her most dangerous mission yet. It's been years since Catherine Blackwood left the stodgy,
repressive colony world of Avalon. Now the captain of the
privateer vessel Andromeda, she is the master of her own
destiny. But Catherine soon finds herself back on Avalon
after receiving a plea for help from a most unlikely source:
her estranged father, esteemed Avalon Council member
Augustus Blackwood. It seems Catherine's brother, the heir to the Blackwood
aristocracy, has gone off in search of treasure on the
failed, chaotic world of Zanzibar. But Cecil Blackwood's
plans have gone very, very wrong, and he has been taken
hostage and held for ransom by a fearsome local warlord.
Augustus, knowing his daughter is the only one who can be
trusted to return his son safely, swallows his pride and
hires Catherine to bring her brother home. Catherine takes the job—but it won't be easy. Just getting
to Zanzibar proves treacherous. And once she arrives, things
only get worse. If she is to save her brother, Catherine
Blackwood must face down danger at every turn and uncover a
mystery four million years in the making.
