Belt Wars
Cade Brennan wanted one thing: finish his contract and go home. Then his crew uncovered the data that explains why the accidents keep happening — and who’s been profiting from them.
Now there are corporate kill-teams in the belt, a data cache worth more than their lives, and no version of “home” that doesn’t require winning a fight Cade never signed up for.
Gritty, ground-level science fiction about ordinary people backed into a corner — and what they become when they decide not to stay there.
