He never leaves a friend behind, and this time won’t be any different.

When a distress beacon far off the main trade routes appears on the scanner, they stop to investigate. The source, a large ship with a gaping hole in the hull, drifts dead in space. Aboard the derelict ship, floating millions of miles from the nearest civilization, a single woman, Earth Force Agent Iaka Kazumi, survives in a sealed cryochamber. When Marcus wakes Iaka, he steps into a conspiracy that could take down the entire Earth government. Marcus, Solomon, and Iaka soon find themselves on the run from Earth Force agents who want them silenced, permanently.

All Marcus Drake wanted was a nice, quiet vacation with his best friend, Solomon Keys, and his girlfriend, Iaka Kazumi. He figured two weeks on Pleasure Planet Four would be perfect. But things never seem to work out the way Marcus plans. They’ve barely settled in when Solomon gets kidnapped.
