Feature
★A Techno Thriller and Sci-Fi Adventure about love, hubris, murder and revenge setting in a futuristic paradise in space.
Description
Just months before launch day, catastophe strikes when Jared Black, the visionary and genius behind the Gyrodome, is gruesomely killed – ejected from one of the space city’s airlocks without a spacesuit.
Detectives Tobias Merton and Rose Duvalle travel to the Gyrodome to investigate the murder. A skeleton crew of six were aboard at the time, and all, it turns out, had motives to kill Jared. Soon, the violence continues, and Tobias and Rose must deal with a host of threats from a homicidal gardening robot to a breach in the space station’s outer wall.
As the detectives home in on the truth, they find themselves in mortal danger. Can they identify the killer before they become the next victims?
