'Meet Ptolemy Jovan Lane, a unique peacemaker.

'Laws are hard to hold, out in the fringes of known space, but Ptolemy Lane is charged with maintaining peace under the dome of Georgina’s Town, among humans, the docile emre and more.

'When a body is discovered in a zero gee suite in the local casino’s brothel wing, Lane is reluctant to get involved. The casino is off limits to his style of law keeping. Only, the body is the casino’s owner, Guisy Oakmint, and Doc Lowry is insisting Lane investigate. Lane soon learns why…'

'Ptolemy Jovan Lane meets his next adventure.

'Lane’s personal cargo is jettisoned while travelling back to Georgina’s Town after the death of a friend. Lane confronts Captain Sandor and learns the ship is being pursued by slavers. Captain Sandor’s response to the disaster is anything but typical. Nor is she above roping in Lane to help…'

'Ptolemy Lane faces two problems.

'A severed arm found on the roof of the highest building in Georgina’s Town sends Ptolemy Lane on the hunt for the rest of the body. It neatly distracts him from the fact that Diya Sandor, former ship captain and new town resident, has left him.

'But when both issues intersect, the fallout can’t be ignored.'

'Serials can’t feel emotions as humans do.

'Or so Ptolemy Jovan Lane has always insisted. Yet when he learns that an old friend, Marijia, might still be alive, he leaves an unsolved murder behind him in order to dash across the fringes to find her, bringing his human assistant, Ninety-Nine, with him.

'His intention is purely to learn the truth, but his impetuous mission goes swiftly and spectacularly awry, leaving Ninety-Nine and him cut off and at the mercy of an enemy Jovan didn’t know he had.'

'Life on Earth is not what they remember…

'The dome over Georgina’s Town cracks and begins to leak, which leads Ptolemy Jovan Lane, peacekeeper of the town, and his assistant, Ninety-Nine, to the cause of the leak. The body they find sends them on an emotion-ladened hunt for the real killer. Destination: Earth – where things are distressingly not the way either of them remembers.

'The troubling truths they uncover threaten more than just Earth, forcing Jovan to face a personal choice that could save everyone…or damn them forever.'
