Raykens Cone

By Darren L Otto

Governor Hodge risks the sanity of his daughter, Danika, and threatens prison for her psychiatrist, Ray Carothers, to keep the past buried and win re-election on the frontier planet of Reliance. Those plans are upended when Ray flees with Danika, whose suppressed memories hold the key to their survival. They hijack a shuttle and race toward an Association space station for protection. The ship's pilot, Corrine Ugalde, is unwittingly caught up in the political intrigue and her cargo of stolen alien artifacts is jeopardized. The Governor and his crew pursue the fugitives halfway across the galaxy until their ships crash on the mysterious world of New Birth. While they battle marauding pirates, carnivorous plants, and bloodthirsty creatures, dark secrets are revealed and the Bothrans' ancient promise of resurrection is discovered at the heart of Raykens Cone. Ultimately, the survivors must decide whether to kill one another for a place on the shuttle's return flight home or take a leap of faith into the multiverse for a second chance at life.
