A weapon of unimaginable power. A desperate mission to the center of the galaxy. Mankind’s fate hangs in the balance.
Since becoming a starship captain, Thomas Holbrook has worried he might someday draw a one-way mission. When he receives orders to divert his CentCom warship to the center of the galaxy, a region from which no vessel has ever returned, he comes face-to-face with his greatest fear.
It’s the year 2330. The “aughts,” robots that warred for independence from mankind, seek insurance against the ever-present human threat. An aught ship speeds to the galactic center for material to build a weapon that could destroy the Earth.
Holbrook can’t allow the aughts to create a planet-killing bomb. He enlists the help of Dr. Rebekah Riesen, a brilliant physicist with her own reasons for joining a mission that may not return, and Tentek, an aught informant who might be a double agent. Together, can they keep a mutinous crew at bay, stop the aughts at the center of the galaxy, and somehow find a way back home?

“Our true nature emerges when we’re pushed to our limits. In moments of fear, betrayal, and impossible choices, we discover the resilience, strength, and moral courage that define who we really are. By examining the deeper philosophical questions of existence, such as the nature of consciousness, faith, and morality, we reflect on what it truly means to be human.
My stories place ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances, forcing them to confront their inner demons, greatest trials, and the deeper truths that challenge their understanding of the world. Through high-stakes conflict, intense personal struggles, and rich world-building, I push my characters to rise to the challenge when everything’s on the line, while grappling with the larger philosophical dilemmas we all face. I bring you, the reader, along for the ride.
I’ve written two award-winning, best-selling science fiction novels that entertain and captivate. These thrilling stories explore resilience, courage, survival, and the philosophical questions that shape our existence.”
