From the Ashes

by Brad Taylor (Illustrations), Jeff Taylor

One of the last two commercial space exploration companies lies on the edge of ruin, its CEO murdered under questionable circumstances. A gifted young detective searches for the one woman who can lead him to the beautiful red-headed assassin responsible; an assassin whose sole purpose in life is to liberate her anarchist husband from a cold lunar prison. A deadly explosion in a suburban San Francisco neighborhood and a daring prison rescue will force them to become unwitting participants in the fight to form humanity's first permanent lunar nation.
