A MISSION TWICE DOOMED ... In the year 2132, World Space Coalition sent three ships to establish Earth's first galactic colony on the planet Akiane in the Pegasus Constellation. They were never heard from again. Three hundred years later, a radio technician has discovered the colony survived. But those of Akiane want nothing to do with Earth. Everything they have accomplished they did without Earth's help. The colony was supposed to be WSC's greatest achievement, and it is determined to reclaim the planet and its people as its own. WSC Space Force has ordered Lt. Jessica M. Hewitt to negotiate with the rogue colony. There's a lot riding on her; if she succeeds, her name will go into history as a hero. If she fails to convince the people of Akiane that they are a colony, history will see her as responsible for WSC's first military galactic takeover. Jess is ill equipped for the task. She has no idea why she was chosen. She doesn't realize that before she can reunite the two worlds, she's going to have to settle with her own demons first. So far, her demons are winning. WSC immediately sent a ship to investigate. During their 328 years of isolation, the colonists have undergone Genetic divergence and are no longer fully human. The alien environment has changed them. Now the change is braking down their DNA. They're a people destined for extinction unless scientists from Earth can discover the cause of the problem and a cure to save them. Time is running out. Of the several thousand who once thrived in the colony less than 250 still live and except for two, everyone is infected. Don't miss out on the first part of this adventure. Buy Now
