Aftershock: Terran Scout Fleet, Book 5 (Unabridged‪)‬

“I thought we were on leave!”


Scout Team Obsidian has been stood down after an especially brutal mission to reacquire a stolen mech called the Atlas. During that mission, team leader Jacob Brown lost his left hand and eye. He is still adjusting to his new prosthetics and was looking forward to a well-earned vacation.


That will have to wait, however, as a new mission tasking has come down from the very top, and it’s a big one. Someone has been preying on colonist ships and refugee pipelines in the frontier regions. Millions have already been abducted, including hundreds of thousands of humans.


Scout Fleet has been ordered to find the missing people and find the ringleaders of the trafficking operation. Admiral Marcus Webb needs his very best, and that means Captain Brown and the rest of his crew. Obsidian is now racing the clock to find the missing people and determine who is running the operation before Earth’s leadership does something rash.
