Excellent Sci-fi Horror - Scary stuff in a spaceship!
Lori Kimura is a former gun smuggler, still on parole after paying for her crimes, and captain of her own small space ship. Travelling through space in her newly purchased but slightly dodgy courier ship she receives an emergency SOS from a medical vessel, and is required under the United Planetary States code and a number of other laws to offer help to a ship in distress - failure to do so could land her right back in a cell. Against her better judgement she decides to offer assistance and docks inside the ship.
There are no ships in the docking bay, no medical equipment, nothing. Certainly enough to make anyone nervous. Even worse a small number of heavily armed and clearly military grade personnel posing as medical research assistants take her into custody to take her to their leader. On the way, they pass a lot of water in various places, dripping from the ceilings, and she was warned to stay clear. Before too long, the soldiers start to be attacked and disappear into the water that appears to be just a puddle never to return... What on earth is going on? How can she get off the medical ship? Can she even survive whatever is happening here?
To find out you really need to read the book - it is certainly a worthwhile read with a lot of unusual and surprising elements which I can highly recommend.
Mindstorm was the first published book for Becca Lee Gardner, and is planned to be the first in a series. I definitely want to read the next installment...
