Elegant Violence (Book #2 of the Darkleich Series)

By Bryan R Barton

A power-hungry leader.

Cutthroat betrayal.

And the man who will combat it all: DARKLEICH.

When the authoritative Chancellor Junar survives a brutal attack by an inhabitant of the Raptarian planet, he sets forces in motion to get his revenge.

It is the year 2624, and fifteen planets have joined to create the United Alliance for Interplanetary Worlds (UAIW), a collaboration dedicated to maintaining widespread peace throughout space.

But ruthless criminals still evade the UAIW's reach.

Recruiting retired military officer, Darkleich, an honorable officer with multiple combats under his belt, Junar orders the creation of the Criminal Retrieval Unit and puts Darkleich at the helm.

His mission: to pursue the notorious Raptarian criminal, Zigart. A ruthless combatant that quickly leaves Darkleich injured, and reeling over a shocking betrayal.

The deeper Darkleich delves into the newfound knowledge, the more dangerous the search for truth becomes. Is he ready to face the consequences when he finds it?

This is a thrilling sci-fi epic full of classic villains, pulse-racing suspense and a flawed, but heroic protagonist.
