In the lawless skies of Venus, vengeance takes flight

In the skies of Venus, millions live in floating cities among the clouds. But this is not paradise. Pirates lurk within those clouds, taking what they want and killing anyone who gets in the way.

Magdalena’s life turned upside down when a pirate attack left her husband dead. She leaves behind her career as a racing pilot, looking to bring the men who killed him to justice.

This daunting task turns deadly when she gets caught in the games of intrigue played by treacherous pirate captains, cunning financiers and ruthless foreign powers. Potential aid comes from Providence, a premier private military organization dedicated to hunting down pirates of Venus.

Magdalena’s hunt will take her into enemy territory, but going too far could have dire consequences for all of Venus.

A fast-paced science fiction adventure in the vein of The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, and Firefly, this novel delivers high-stakes futuristic combat, morally complex warfare, and a heroine fighting to survive on the frontier.
