Hard Vacuum

An $11.4 billion lunar contract. A dead engineer. A stolen design. And something on the Moon that shouldn't exist.

The race to conquer space isn't about exploration anymore.

It's about who gets rich. And who gets killed.

When Corvane Orbital Systems wins a multibillion-dollar government contract to construct humanity's next permanent lunar base, the future looks brighter than ever.

But behind the historic victory lies a dangerous secret.

A rival aerospace company's revolutionary technology has been stolen. An engineer is dead under suspicious circumstances. And a ruthless corporate security operative discovers that someone else is playing an even deadlier game.

The prize?

An asteroid containing trillions of dollars in lithium. Enough wealth to reshape Earth's economy and determine who controls humanity's expansion into space.

But while powerful corporations and shadowy conspirators fight for control on Earth, Colonel Raymond Haskell and his small crew of astronauts are stationed at an isolated lunar survey outpost, preparing for the next great leap into the solar system.

They're eleven months away from receiving reinforcements.

They believe they're alone.

They're wrong.

When an impossible distress signal flashes across the dark lunar landscape, Haskell faces a terrifying question.

If no one else is supposed to be on the Moon...
