Mediator for the Solar Alliance Alibi Jones searches for a stolen Dakhur artifact, a golden tiara with a blood red gem - The Sunrise of Hur - a cultural treasure, property and pride of the Dakhur race. But Alibi isn't supposed to land on the planet he most wants to investigate - Kismet, home of the crime lord Rene Laveillur, who's claimed Alibi's on-and-off girlfriend Katerina Ramsey as his own property. Alibi's been warned - if he lands on Kismet, he's a dead man!

His first novel, 2005's "Vatican Assassin" - science fiction set during an interplanetary Western/Muslim war - introduced "BC", a killer for the New catholic Church in 2109.

BC's story continues in the rest of Mike's Vatican Assassin Trilogy - "Vatican Ambassador" and "Vatican Abdicator".
Mike now writes "The Adventures of Alibi Jones" - Twentysomething years later, Alibi Jones – son of BC – is a Mediator for the Solar Alliance Interplanetary Force, negotiating interstellar trade arrangements and other matters with alien races. The series begins in the novel "Alibi Jones" and continues in book two "Alibi Jones and The Sunrise of Hur", the short story collection "Alibi Jones and the Time War of The Devrizium", issue one of the comic "The Adventures of Alibi Jones" and in the brand-new novel "Alibi Jones and The Hornet's Nest".

I just finished listening to the audiobook from podiobooks.com. A worthy continuation of Alibi Jones Adventures. If you liked the the Vatikan Assassin Trilogy and the first Alibi Jones this book wont dissapoint you. I really like the comiclike style of these stories especially the "soundeffects".They always make me smile.
The narration of Mr. Luoma is as good as in his previous books(means good).
