Synopsis

Vatic, a top Company empath, is forced to board a rogue bioship heading for certain destruction.

Experimental Company bioship, the CSS Ariadne, has cut all communications and launched herself into hyperspace-heading towards enemy territory and certain destruction if she cannot be stopped.

The crew managed to send out an SOS before the Ariadne disappeared. Someone was murdered... but who?

Vatic, a Skilled empath in the reluctant employ of the Company, is drugged and forced to board the rogue ship. He arrives to find the vessel full of corpses, a small band of suspicious survivors, and no explanations.

Our hero soon realises that not everyone who survived is as they seem. There is an imposter aboard, but who is it, and what are their motives?

Vatic must use all his talents if he and the ship are going to survive.

But survival is what the Skilled do best... isn't it?

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

"K.J.Heritage's uncanny sense of pacing and story puts him at the forefront of today's speculative fiction writers." - Samuel Peralta, Amazon bestselling author and creator of The Future Chronicles. When K.J.Heritage isn't penning third-person descriptions about himself for online consumption, he's an international bestselling author writing the books he likes to read. From psychological thrillers, crime and mystery to sci-fi and action & adventure. His first short story, 'ESCAPING THE CRADLE' was runner-up in the 2005 Clarke-Bradbury International Science Fiction Competition. His other short stories have appeared in several anthologies with such self-publishing sci-fi luminaries as Hugh Howey, Samuel Peralta and Michael Bunker. K.J.Heritage's short story, CHURCHILL'S ROCK, part of the 'Chronicle Worlds: Legacy Fleet' anthology, will be aboard the Astrobotic's Peregrine Lunar Lander set for launch on the United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Centaur rocket platform bound for the moon in 2022. K.J.Heritage has worked all the requisite 'writer jobs' such as driver's mate, factory gateman, barman, labourer, telesales operative, sales assistant, warehouseman, IT contractor, Student Union President, university IT helpdesk guy, British Rail signal software designer, Premiership football website designer, gigging musician, graphic designer, stand-up comedian, sound engineer, improv artist, magazine editor and web journo... Although he doesn't like to talk about it. Mostly... Maybe a little bit. He was born in the UK in one of the more interesting previous centuries. Originally from Derbyshire, he now lives in the seaside town of Brighton. He is a tea drinker, and autistic (ASD) neurodivergent human being.
