In this thrilling debut, David J. Williams delivers a
hard-hitting blend of military SF and dystopian cyberpunk,
set in a futuristic landscape where hostilities rage from
the Eastern and Western hemispheres to the outer ranges of
space.
In the 22nd century, the first wonder
of a brave new world is the Phoenix Space Elevator, designed
to give mankind greater access to the frontier beyond Earth.
Built by the U.S./Pan-Asian Coalition, the Elevator is also
a grand symbol of superpower alliance following a second
cold war. And it’s just been destroyed.
The South
American insurgent group Autumn Rain claims responsibility
for the attack, but with suspicions rampant, armies and
espionage teams are mobilized across the globe and beyond.
Enter Claire Haskell and Jason Marlowe, U.S.
counterintelligence agents, and former lovers—though their
memories may only be constructs implanted by their
spymaster. Forced to set aside the enigma of their past,
their agenda is to trust no one. For in a time of shifting
loyalties, the enemy could be anyone—from a shadowy assassin
working a questionable mission on the dark side of the moon,
to a Euro data thief working under deep cover and wooed into
a dangerous pact.
As the crisis mounts, and the
search for Autumn Rain spans both Earth and Moon, the lives
of all those involved will converge in one explosive
finale—and a startling aftermath that will rewrite
everything they’ve ever known—about their mission, their
world, and themselves
