A Taste for Cerulean Blue: Nakon Trilogy Book 1

By Dale Sale

War hero. Reluctant investigator. Target.

First Sergeant Jill Tower returns from a brutal year in deep space expecting rest, not chaos. Her home is gone, her career derailed, and the city she once knew is drowning in corruption. When the son-in-law of a powerful admiral turns up dead and the authorities refuse to touch the case, Jill is pulled into a dangerous new role with one mission: find the killer before the killer finds her.

The trail leads straight into Nakon City's criminal underbelly -- a world of smugglers, political power plays, and the illicit substance known as Cerulean Blue. With a sharp-tongued AI assistant at her side and enemies closing in from every direction, Jill uncovers a conspiracy decades in the making.

Jill must fight for her life in this electrifying page-turner. In a neo-noir world where the stakes are high and betrayal runs deep, who can Jill trust?

A Taste For Cerulean Blue is the thrilling first instalment in Dale Sale's Nakon Trilogy, perfect for fans of gritty sci-fi noir, twist-driven mysteries, and character-rich futuristic thrillers.
