Space Cell 11

By Brian E. Niskala

When Commander Henry Lewis Benning refuses a direct order to kill, the cost is everything he has left.

Three years ago, Benning chose mercy over murder - sparing the lives of hijacked shuttle survivors his own Admiral wanted dead. For that choice, he lost his rank, his freedom, and very nearly his daughter. Now he's just another prisoner in Space Cell 13, a penal colony orbiting a moon that mines more than minerals.

Inside, Benning finds unlikely allies: Tesla, a brilliant engineer with a working teleportation array and a past he won't discuss, and Bear, a fellow prisoner whose loyalty runs deeper than either of them lets on. Together they hatch an escape that seems almost impossible - until they discover something far worse than their own imprisonment.

Somewhere in the cold dark of the asteroid belt, hundreds of genetically engineered lives are mining a fortune for a government that insists they don't exist. The cover-up runs to the highest office on Earth. And getting the truth home alive may cost Benning the one thing he swore, three years ago, he'd never risk again.

Space Cell 11 is a fast-moving science fiction thriller about duty, mercy, and the price of doing what's right when everyone with power wants you to look away
