Dark Peace

Cole Riker is a free man.

Or close enough. He no longer has the weight of his past hanging over him, threatening to put him away for the rest of his days. All it took was finding an unknown alien lifeform and agreeing to escort it back to its homeworld.

Except his newfound luck doesn’t want to last. Gray doesn’t remember how to get home, and all the evidence says his people abandoned him after an unknown threat came calling.

And that’s only the beginning.

After Cole and his misfit crew are forcibly ejected from a collapsing slip tunnel, they find themselves in a different galaxy with no hope of getting back. That is, until they find something unexpected.

One of Earth’s lost seed ships adrift in a sector that’s never been mapped.

There, they discover something even more impossible: survivors.

Getting back on track should be as easy as convincing the 2,000-year-old passengers to fire up the engines and set a course for the nearest star system, but there’s something insidious about the long lost seed ship.

It’s a little too perfect, and Cole will have to unearth more secrets before his chance to escape disappears completely.

Warning: This book contains action, cussing, and general badassery. Listen at your own risk.
