HUNTED

At the far edge of the galaxy fear has a new home . . .

Security Chief Lochan Rondel joined the Nightingale to gain a warrior’s signet and join the Thirteen Systems elite. He knew venturing into an uncharted section of the galaxy meant risking his life, but he did not expect to fight a harrowing battle with the despoiler fleet. With the despoilers defeated, the signet is almost within his grasp. A few days with a lovely engineer on an uninhabited planet is a well-earned reward for months of risk and danger. Except that Bright Star Prime is not uninhabited, and the squatters are deadly.

Adele Cypress invented a revolutionary launch platform that will be the first in the Thirteenth System. A commoner from a modest background, it is an opportunity beyond her wildest dreams. Not only will its success secure her future, but she will also meet the heroic Commander Lochan. A man she has fantasized about since he first appeared in the media streams. When he joins her for a planetary excursion, she is as thrilled with his company as she is with the wonder of a new and untamed world. Her excitement turns into terror with a midnight attack.

Fleeing into the night, can Lochan and Adele stay ahead of their enemies long enough for the Nightingale to rescue them?
