Infestation

In a spacecraft, everyone can hear you scream.

The comet mining ship Olympia drifts into the Station's solar system. No one aboard. Power at minimal levels. Yet the ship appears intact and function. A curiosity and an administrative headache that the Station is quick to auction off to an enterprising couple seeking freedom and a new start for their family. Only the ship isn't as empty as the salvage reports indicated. Something stayed behind.

They turn to an unlikely duo for help. Jules, a medium whose scars are hidden beneath a prosthetic face. And MAR-A, a former combat droid seeking spiritual answers. Together they face strange new terrors that threaten their very souls.

Dark Matters

Brock Marsden isn’t quite human any longer.

Using technology from the Galactics, Brock incorporated DNA from other species into himself. It gained him longevity, better vision, and faster reflexes. All traits valuable when tracking down the worst killers on the planet.

A banker hires Brock to track down the being that murdered and mutilated his daughter.

Brock’s partner at their detective agency saddles Brock with an alien intern. With a complicated love life, a police chief who’d like to shut him out of the case, and a threat from his distant past—Brock faces a case like none other.

It will take all of Brock’s alien-enhanced abilities to stop this killer—and maybe more than he imagines.

Waking Dead Things

Sixteen and stressed. It wasn’t the driver’s test that had Ravyn on edge. It was the Inquisition’s test.

Every four years, the Inquisition tested her for any hint of paranormal abilities that would mark her as a witch.

Oh, their methods had evolved over the centuries. They didn’t burn witches at the stake anymore. Today burning a witch meant chemical and surgical brain surgery to eliminate any unnatural talents the witch possessed. Internationally backed, the new secular Inquisition formed an elite police force standing against darkness.

Yeah, right. Ravyn knew firsthand what it meant. She helped her mom take care of her grandmother, accused witch, burned by the Inquisition, and barely able to function now. Just being her granddaughter was enough to put Ravyn under suspicion.

So, yeah, turning sixteen was stressful. Especially since she suspected she might be a witch after all.
