A deadly mystery in the depths of space…
Level ships of the line have been going missing; destroyed or taken completely by ghosts and no one left alive to tell the tale. When Admiral of the Fleet Judith Usher personally requests Captain Hollis Ives take the Verity and find out why, Hollis knows damn well this won’t be a simple mission. To make matters worse, Mad Dog Gracie Madox will be shipping with the Verity, and Hollis has more than enough experience to know how dangerous the former pirate captain can be. But with the cloud of suspicion currently hanging over herself and her crew, Hollis desperately needs a successful mission.
Former officer-come-pirate Silas Hunt is chafing under Hollis Ives’s command. He was raised to serve in the navy, but after watching far too many friends and crewmates shot down months previous, he’s no longer willing to simply keep quiet and go along with orders—regardless of the consequences of disobedience. But when the Verity arrives at the place where Level ships have been going missing, simply keeping himself and the former crew of the Sweet Jenny alive long enough for him to face those consequences might be more than Silas can manage.
Treasure Island meets Master and Commander with a science-fiction twist in R.M. Olson’s thrilling series, The Devil and the Dark.
Genre: Science Fiction
